I’ve noticed sound on Plexamp sounds lower than in Plex Media Player or Plexweb (everything in Linux).  
I’ve managed to put in the config.json the hotkeys for volumedown and volumeup, and they work, but max volume is lower (yet acceptable).

The main problem is I need to put at max level the system sounds, so, every time I have a system sound, it sounds quite loud.

I’m the only one?

> I’m having an issue with Plexamp (love this app by the way). When playing music, everything is about 30% of the volume that it should be. If I play music from any other sound source, it’s roughly 3 times louder, about the expected volume level based on what I’m used to. I double checked the application mixer in Windows 10 and all my sound playback/output settings are in order. Thank you.
