Description

### What Happened?

Running a new install of elementary OS 8 on a Dell XPS desktop. Issue is that the system volume randomly, all the way up to 100%.

It is hard to replicate on demand but I have observed that many times it may be triggered whenever I change audio devices (let's say, from default to a headset). I can reset by rebooting but only for the problem to creep up again randomly.

### Steps to Reproduce

Hard to reproduce on demand. I will boot up my PC, play audio ("Spotify") and at any time, randomly, the system volume begins stepping up all the way to 100%.

### Expected Behavior

Expected behavior is for the volume level to stay static unless changed/moved.

### OS Version

8.x (Circe)

### OS Architecture

amd64 (on most hardwares)

### Session Type

Classic Session (X11, This is the default)

### Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

### Log Output

```shell

```

### Hardware Info

_No response_
