How do I stop teams from turning my headset volume up to 100% in the "App volume and device preferences" before each call?

The title says it all. The only way to prevent my ear drums from bursting is:

  1. Join a call before anyone else
  2. open Settings
  3. search for "Sound mixer options" (which takes you to the "App volume and device preferences" screen)
  4. turn the teams volume down for my headset

This happens 100% of the time and it's absolutely ridiculous.

    I had to turn off "Adjust Mic Sensitivity" and the volume on my Beats Pro Fit stopped being automatically adjusted. Weird that the mic sensitivity has anything to do with the volume.

    Thanks Michael! Unfortunately I have the same versions but still experience the volume issue.
