Why the Vizio Soundbar Volume Increments? [Answered 2024]

Increments in the volume of the Vizio Soundbar into larger steps can skip the required sound level, which can annoy you. As some people face the issue of bringing the volume from 0 to direct 3 level, which really irritates the one who’s searching for the normal audio level in between these steps– neither too low nor too high.

So, The volume increment levels of the Vizio Soundbar are fixed by the company system, but you can try to maintain this by syncing audio settings of your TV/ LED and adjusting TVOL /SRS TruSurround with the soundbar.

Basically, the volume increments mean that the volume level jumps from one lower level to direct the higher volume level, like 0 to 3, 3 to 5, and then direct 8, and so on, but what about the central levels?

This is the question that arises in the minds of many people when they don’t get any sound during the 0 (muted) sound level of the soundbar, and suddenly it jumps to level 3, which is very loud sometimes.

This is the error by default, and no one can do anything except Vizio, which can update their system, but we are here to share some factors which may help to troubleshoot this skipping volume increments.

Why the Vizio Soundbar Volume Increments?
1. Troubleshoot the Advanced Audio Settings

These advanced audio levels work differently; however, they sum up into the fluctuations of sound level on themselves. Like TruSurround makes the background noises louder, and TruVol adjusts the volume level at the normal point, which is too high or low.

So you can check whether these settings are enabled or disabled, then switch them.

Enable/Disable TruVolume for fluent normal volume – Not too high/low

We have a complete guide about the “ Vizio Soundbar TruVolume” which you can check for more understanding.

However, a Short way to fluctuate this setting is,

• Go to the “Main Menu” first.
• Then select “Advance Audio Settings.”
• Click over the specific subject like “Volume Levelling” for Tru Volume.
• Now Switch the settings easily.

Disable the DTS TruSurround option to avoid loud background sound.

The procedure of disabling is the same as that of the TVOL except for the selection.

• Firstly, Navigate over the “Menu.”
• Go to the “Advanced settings.”
• Select the “Surround level” for DTS TruSurround.
• Now click the “Off ” button lastly.

And Voila! The settings have fluctuated.

 Note: If the setting was already set to off, you might be able to remedy the issue by turning it to ‘On.’

• You can also avoid this error by pressing the “Volume Down” and “Power” buttons from the soundbar for almost 30 seconds. This solution will also work when the sound level increases on its own.

2. Adjust the Volume level of the TV according to the Soundbar.

As the Vizio soundbars are made that way, so you have to think of some other points which can resolve this matter, like the one we’re discussing.

The adjusting volume level of that specific device on which you’re watching can also synchronize the audio level of the sound bar, as talked over Reddit. We’ve inserted the direct link here so that you can easily explore.

For example, If the volume level of the soundbar is switched to 3 and it seems too loud for you, then bring the audio level of the TV to lower steps like 5 or 4, which will set best for you.

Conclusion:

Here we go, Concluding the article, Volume increments are the fixed volume levels by Vizio, which can be sorted out by disabling/enabling TruVol. Also, adjusting the sound level of the soundbar according to the TV/LED can also give you a demanding sound.

However, there is some “Combination of Keys” which we’ve discussed above. So, Go and Troubleshoot this increasing volume of soundbar now!
