Audio Changes Since U50

I know it was mentioned in the patch notes that some audio changes had been made, but I am having a hard time getting my audio setup to match what I had before. The first thing I noticed was that the sound when entering, exiting, or changing UI windows is extremely loud and booming and after a couple of daily crafting writs I turned it down to a more comfortable level. Unfortunately now I can’t hear any other sounds like the crafting sounds when making gear. Also, even though my master volume is all the way up, I can barely hear anything else either, including music and some NPCs. Some time in the past the sound level was changed for when your character is in a crafting station so that all sound is muted, and I wonder if that is not working properly now. I never liked that change. It seems like after some time spent in the same zone the overall sound increases to a more reasonable level. I could turn up the volume of the stereo receiver to compensate but it would be much louder than other games.

I know this isn’t game breaking but it does hinder enjoyment of the game. Can someone look into it?

    Yep, not really a fan if these audio changes are working as intended.

    Audio attached to some actions now is so low compared to everything else.

    Antiquities, node harvesting, some actions during Tribute... a few that spring to mind.

    I noticed the same thing. It's especially obvious when you go stand next to a bard and can barely hear them playing or singing.

    At the moment I am appreciating the changes; I just don't get why opening the map has that sound instead of something "papery" like "opening a scroll".

    Btw, don't lose hope since they said this will be a long work in progress; they likely want feedback on this to improve over time.

    Feedback in my opinion, everything was fine before, now it doesn’t sound right.

    When someone appears at the Transitus Shrine in Cyrodiil and they are a werewolf, which is a lot of people now, there is the cinematic shockwave explosion kind of sound too. Like why…
