Microphone settings keep changing

[Wiley]

When I double-tap to switch to passthrough mode on my Quest 3, as well as sometimes when I get a stutter that goes on long enough when I'm in VR mode, in-game in the Voice preferences my microphone (which requires basically 100% boost for me to be heard) switches to seemingly random levels of boost.  Sometimes, it's 0% boost, sometimes about a quarter, sometimes about 50%.

I found the file where the VR setting is, but I can't find any other file holding a similar variable name, though working blind I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for.  Setting the boost level to the same level in 2D mode wasn't successful in resolving it.  I can make it do it on command generally by switching to passthrough mode, then back to VR.

It's such a tiny thing, but it makes me irrationally angry to have to check my vox settings every time my system stutters.

Have you unchecked the "Enable automatic MIC DB Boost"? 

[Wiley]

Not at my pc now but that's the checkbox above the slider for the boost right? If so, then I have no boost and am too quiet.

The check box automatically adjusts the boost, if you uncheck it you can leave it at 100%

I can move the slider, however, with the checkbox unchecked, it does nothing to raise my volume.  Only with the box checked does the slider do anything.

Either it's meant to grey out the slider, or the slider's not doing its job when I have the box unchecked.

You should be able to move the slider with it checked or not, but if you have it checked it will automatically adjusts your volume as it sees fit.  I easily see differences when using the slider when testing on my own vox channel.
The slider is only enabled with max mic volume already set on its slider.

Might be something on my end then. I have no difference between 0 and 100 on that slider without the box checked.  Will keep futzing with it.
