Audio too quiet with wired headphones

The audio is very quiet for and I don’t know how to make it louder. I am mainly a Windows user and don’t know how to do much.
CPU: i5-10600
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 630
RAM: 16GB
Motherboard: Gigabyte H410 H
Desktop: KDE Plasma
The single speakers I have are built in my monitor and they are affected too
Headphones are bluetooth but my bluetooth dosen’t work on linux because of the adaptor that I use, so I am using a wire without any volume control

Info on hardware used and desktop environment (inxi -Fazy)?
What did you already try?

The builtin speakers are not affected?
… we do not even know whether your system has speakers …

Headphones may have a volume adjust on the cable …

You told us virtually nothing.

What I suggested to post was the output of:

inxi -Fazy

and please format the output using the code tag → this symbol: </>

it contains much more information than what you provided
and may give someone a clue as to how to help you

you need to try again - that was not nearly all the output - and it was not formatted using the </> (code) tag

Sorry for wasting your time after a restart the audio went back loud again, the single thing I want to know is where is the button to delete the post I can’t find it.

that is because it does not exist …
But I don’t actually think that is so :wink:
But it may be so for the initial post - I don’t know.

Mark your issue as solved
and be done with it.

Deleting or editing your posts would leave all the replies being useless and without context …
