Questions / Volume Slider Keeps Returning to Zero Percent

« on: May 19, 2021, 11:16:15 PM »

I have a small question about the volume control slider in the player bar. If I set the volume slider to, say, 40%, play all or part of a track (playlist item), and then either click the stop button and then close MB or just close MB while the track is playing, the next time I open MB and either click on the same track that had been playing, or click on the "play" button to start the track, the volume control moves from wherever I left it, say 40%, to 0%. This also happens if I choose another track from the same or any other playlist: the volume slider is parked where I last left it before I closed MB and then moves to 0% when I choose to play a track, either by clicking the track in the playlist or clicking the "play" button.

This is no big deal except that when I choose a track and play it, I get no volume when I was certain I'd selected a track to play, etc. Choose a track -->start it-->walk away --> come back two minutes later wondering why there's no music -->check the volume slider, which is now at 0%-->adjust slider--> problem solved until next time when I'll hopefully remember to stick around long enough to adjust the slider.

This is with MusicBee v3.4.7805 on Windows 10 Pro, but the slider behavior has been around for several previous MB version incarnations.

Do you have any solution for this?

Thanks for any help...
