Under the Playback tab, normally the Speakers device is selected as the default playback device. You get one of the old wizards that Microsoft is trying to eliminate, but have yet to incorporate all the same features into their new Settings wizard. Go into the old Control Panel (control.exe) under Hardware and Sound, and click on Sound. Some programs add their own playback device (software based or virtualized device). If so, is its volume the same as the base/master volume level (often marked as Speakers, but depends on what you selected as the Playback device in the sound config)? If it's there, also check that it is not a muted source (the speaker icon under the volume slider). With the Your Phone app loaded, is there an entry for it in the Volume Mixer dialog? You may have to drag the horizontal scrollbar to view all playback devices. ![]() This has fucked over users ever since because most just want the volume level the same across all sound-enabled programs rather than individual volume settings. ![]() Since Windows 7, each source can be separately controlled from the base volume. When you load a program or app that issues sound API calls to the OS, it may get listed in the Sound Mixer (right-click on the sound tray icon, select Open Volume Mixer). I don't use that app, so the following is a guess.
