I don't think that will solve the volume problem. Why should one voice be at a different volume when the same synthesizer is being used.

I don't have Windows 10 but this command should open Windows volume settings for play.
Hold the Windows key and type r. Release both keys. The run dialog will open.
type sndvol and press enter.
Tab around and see if NVDA is listed in the volume settings. Can you raise it?

When finished, close the utility with alt f4. There is no ok button. When you right arrow to raise the volume or left arrow to lower the volume settings take immediate effect. That allows you to hear the changes as you make them.

hi.
do you use espeak bundled with nvda or
do you use espeak sapi5?
if you use espeak of sapi5, it depend on the valume of your choice in
control panel, valume control.
if you use espeak which is installed by default with nvda, i did not
try other synthesizer,
but for me the valume is loud and i select 60 or 70 for its valume.
also, it depend on the voice that you selected.
which variant are you using?

Hi. I am noticing that espeak has quite alower volume than other
system sounds, or listening to a video or anything else, even though
the volume is set at 100% in voice settings. How can I fix?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
