Odd quiet dialog behavior

I’ve got a Beam Gen 2.  I’m watching Star Trek TNG on Paramount+ on Roku and I’m noticing what appears to be the oddest behavior.  It’s so odd part of me wonders if it’s in my head.  Anytime a new scene occurs that begins with dialog, the dialog is so quiet at first but then increases to a proper volume a few seconds later.  It’s especially noticeable when the previous scene ends with some kind of loud noise.  Has anyone else noticed this?  Or am I just crazy?  Or maybe both?

Very strange…  I don’t know of a setting that could cause this behaviour in Sonos.  Does this happen with any other source?

As a trial, lower the Volume a bit.

Is there a voice assistant installed anywhere? There could be ducking due to a false wake-word detection.

Hi @MAXIMVS174 

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

If you have Night Sound activated, please try disabling it.

I hope this helps.
