I have a USB speaker that apparently does some sort of volume mapping on the mixer level. Unfortunately my OS does the same thing and they get multiplied together, so the effect is volume level 0-97: complete silence. Level 98: loud. Level 99: deafening.
It was quite annoying to randomly get your volume cut in half because iOS decided that you'd had enough. Luckily these days you can reclassify Bluetooth devices, so I made this speaker to be recognised as a speaker, which stops it.
