Since these are usually the "Default Communications Devices", it is Windows that detects this and adjusts the volume, the Signal Desktop Client doesn't do this directly. In the background, the client accesses the default devices for playback and recording. In Signal calling, calls are setup and then they start ringing, so that as soon as you accept the call, it begins. You can still get calls on your other devices though, they are independent. If you do this, you won't get incoming calls and your volume should not be affected if someone tries to call you. You can go to Preferences and find the Calling section, uncheck the "Enable Incoming calls" check box: Hi for the short-term, you might want to disable incoming calls to avoid the issue. Linked Device Version: 4.70.3 Link to Debug Log (See description text above) Platform Info The Signal desktop client should respect settings in Windows that prevent it from touching the system's audio levels.

Get annoyed that the system audio volume is still very low, and not being able to figure out how to get it back to normal.

Observe as system audio is reduced significantly, to the point where you can almost not hear anything that is going on in Windows anymore.

Someone calls you, and you get a "Incoming audio call" note in the desktop client.

And I don't want to risk audio feedback here.)ĮDIT: this behaviour started after updating the desktop client just now. I have no clue if the same happens if you answer the call in the desktop client, as I have no way to test (there are no headphones connected to the system, only speakers. I have to quit the Signal desktop client to be able to regain control over my computer's system audio level again. Here are the settings in my Signal desktop client: Sound Properties > Communication: I have fully disabled the feature that volume should be reduced when there is communications activity. This is quite rude, and needs to stop immediately, to be honest. So apparently, it seems like the Signal client has some weird "override" to controlling the system audio level without it being detected by the system (or the user). I tried toggling mute, and adjusting the system audio volume manually, but it didn't help. I had a look in the Volume Mixer, and all levels were normal (untouched), so nothing was apparently changed there. On "Incoming audio call", the desktop client will (somehow) reduce the system's audio level when you answer it on the mobile, and when the call is ended, it will still remain at the level it was changed to by the client.

I have searched open and closed issues for duplicates (at least as well as I could, this topic is not easy to search for).
