Sound level fluctuates wildly

I'd have to get more detail to maybe help more, but sometimes if your PC's sound settings are set particularly loud or on the fringe of being silent the granularity of control can become compressed. So, maybe check your general PC sound settings to go from the start of the audio chain through to the end and see if something is overly cranked up or perhaps - almost - turned silent. It may also be that you have something trying to control your audio for you in a way that is causing this; maybe it is trying to equalize gain or do noise cancellation and doing it poorly. Common culprits can be things like Skype, Zoom, Discord, OBS, xSplit, Teamspeak, etc., especially if they are trying to take priority of your audio in the background and you have their "special" audio features enabled.

There is big inconsistency in sound levels in game itself.
In VoN 5 the audio feedback of reaching trap bonus tiers (Neutralization / Ingenious) is much louder than it is in most of the quests. This can be extremely unpleasant at raid nights.

When you run into extreme cases of this please consider filling out a bug report. Typically this is being caused by an audio file being triggered twice simultaneously, which has the effect of doubling its output, and needs to be corrected on a case by case basis.

Does this mean the in-game bug report feature is moderately functional now? I had given up on filing bug reports when the in-game tool stopped working.

If we're talking about sound effects, can you please do something about rats. The slider is already at 2 of 100 but they are just aggravatingly loud. I often turn that slider down to 0 when I run wheloon because of the rats. They make me want to turn off sound effects completely.
