in reply to @atomicthumbs's post:
Is it like the google assistant thingie that seems to constantly confuse me telling it to turn the lights on (which is what I use it for) with me commanding to turn its volume all the way up to max (which I have never wanted it to do, ever) so it BEEPS REALLY LOUD while not doing what I told it to do?
i get this with spotify when it’s open but playing on another device - it somehow syncs the button-adjustable volume on my phone to the remote device’s volume level, without affecting the actual local volume which it seemingly manages to restore and give you button control over when you play something locally. but then it will often massively fuck up and when switching devices or closing spotify fail to restore the volume and boom i’m deaf
I'm not playing anything on any other device and I'm making dead sure not to touch the watch
you might find some SOME recourse by disconnecting the Bluetooth headset from the phone, pushing volume down on the headset a bunch and then connecting again.
"enable absolute volume" is the setting that prevents these from getting desynched on Android, dunno about ios.
but yeah rrrrrrrrrrrrrr >:C
headset in question is a pair of sony wf-1000xm4s, I turned off their volume control
this is very dumb and i don't have an iPhone to test but i wonder if disabling volume with buttons is making the headset fall back to its internal volume if it starts going into idle sleep whereas volume control with buttons might link the two
I have "adjust alert volume with buttons" disabled for basically this reason but yours might actually be cursed
