I would like to ask, why does Opera keep changing sensitivity of microphone? It becomes annoying and ruins calls when Opera sets sensitivity to 100% and other person/people hear my ventilator in Notebook. Is there any way to turn off automatic volume gain in Opera?

That sounds weird, why do you think Opera does that? Are you using a meeting app in Opera? That sounds like an automatic volume setting on the app itself, or maybe on your operating system or mike driver.

@tlord3690 How can you see that opera is changing your microphone sensitivity?
I will suggest you: Go to OS settings > Microphone's settings
Check the settings and change them accordingly.

@naheed I have DTS Sound+ driver where i see all speakers and microphones connected + sensitivity on mics. Here I can see if the sensitivity is going up or not. I have noticed that it is only on this browser and not others, because i turned off Automatic gain on those but Opera doesn't have this setting.
In Control Panel i have already turned off access to take control over mic.

@tlord3690 When you say that Opera does it, is it just after opening the application, regardless of the page you are in??

@tlord3690 What other browsers do you use? I don't see such setting on Chrome too.

Google-chrome has an extension by the name Disable Automatic Gain Control. Opera need an addon like this.
