I submitted a PR for configurable volume ~2015 [0]. For as often as I see this complaint in threads about the project, it's a shame that the author isn't interested in implementing it.

Yeah, fuck this audio, it literally made me rip my earbuds out because it was so loud and unexpected. Straight up asshole design.

Oh but you don't understand! They had to take their earbuds out. Clearly this is a malicious site and should be treated as such! The volume, after all. Yhoiseth, the volume.

The audio is the whole point of the library. Otherwise you could just use

  window.scrollTo({ top: 0, behavior: "smooth" })
