Why does Audio fade-in instead of starting at set volume level?












0
















  • Ubuntu 18.04.01

  • HDMI from GPU to the Asus monitor speakers (volume
    set to 100 within the monitor's menu)


When, for example, I start a YouTube video the video starts playing but, the audio slowly comes online. That is, it goes from zero volume and slowly progresses, fades-in, up to the volume I actually have set (about 50%). It's like there is a dial being turned.



Instead, I'd like to audio to just come online when I start a video at the volume I have set.



Audio works fine otherwise, it's only when it starts that it transitions in slowly. Happens every time I pause and play a video again. Audio slowly comes online.



Not sure what would cause this. I checked monitor for settings and it only has the volume. I checked Ubuntu sound settings and don't see anything there. I checked in YouTube as well Firefox settings and see nothing there either. Not sure where else to look. I also checked out alsamixer too.
