Roku ultra volume goes high or low randomly

In mid show the volume randomly go high or low.  When it goes high the audio output gets very distorted at all volume levels.  The only way to fix this is to exit the app and go back in.  I've seen several posts on this exact issue but none of them address an actual fix.  What is the fix for this issue besides exiting an app and restart?

Re: Roku ultra volume goes high or low randomly

Hi, @Am2195

A warm welcome here in the Roku Community.

We appreciate you for sharing this information with us, and we'd be more than glad to assist, but we'll need to collect further information. What specific channel does this issue occur? Also, what steps have you taken in an attempt to resolve the issue? Further, what Roku device are you having issues with including the Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version? (These can all be found in Settings > System > About).

We look forward to hearing back from you.

All the best,
Kash

Hi, @Am2195

Thanks for keeping us posted with the information that we've requested.

We'll pass this information and your concern to the appropriate Roku team for further investigation. 

In addition, we'd like you to perform a system restart to see if any improvements occur after this. To perform this, navigate to Settings > System > Power (skip if no sub-menu) > System Restart.

Please keep us posted on how this works.

All the best,
Kash

Re: Roku ultra volume goes high or low randomly

We have rebooted our unit many times over the past 6 months with no effect.  Yesterday's error codes all happened while using Sling.  However it does happen on the for mentioned apps as well
