Frequency: Very often, whenever changing avatar and finding games to play
Impact: Moderate

The new ambient music for Console builds of Roblox has many times where it’s very loud, and maxes out the speakers max volume multiple times, causing very disruptive sound artifacts.

I’ve only reproduced this on the Xbox version of Roblox as I do not have a PS4 or PS5.

The Xbox build where this occurs is 1.605.660.0.

Repro steps:

  1. Open the Xbox version of Roblox
  2. Sit on the pre-login page
  3. Let the music play for a few minutes
  4. Observe how some parts of the music max out the speaker volume

I’m pretty sure that the console version no longer has music.

What version of the app? I’m talking about the new music that was introduced in one of the last releases of 2023.

I noticed that the Xbox version of Roblox is a few client versions behind; it hasn’t updated since December. Is this bug fixed in later releases?

Been playing on PlayStation for the past couple days and noticed this as well. It also occasionally doesn’t stop when entering an experience, and will continue to play even once the experience is fully loaded. The volume of the background music definitely needs to be lowered significantly.

This is still occuring as of 2024/2/3 and on Xbox app version 1.610.472.0

Hello,

We have deployed a change last week on all devices to prevent the app’s background music from escalating to deafening levels. Please let us know if everything sounds good.

With the new update the volume seems to be good now, thanks for the help!
