Description

it seems like the pop sound is a bit harsh for some reason. I'm not sure if it's too loud, or if the frequency is too high, or what's up but I notice when changing the volume on elementary OS it sounds a bit sharp/harsh compared to changing the volume on stock GNOME or Ubuntu (with Yaru sounds).

Research direction

Start by locating the volume-pop sound asset in the sound-theme repository and compare its playback with the corresponding sounds in elementary OS, stock GNOME, and Ubuntu with Yaru sounds. Determine whether the harshness is caused by loudness or frequency, and consider the issue done when volume changes sound consistent with those references.
