Are you having issues with low in race sound levels? Possible answer!

My problem, sound levels fine everywhere, menus etc except in race. Could only just hear engine sounds etc.
After re-installing soundcard drivers, removing and re-install the card numerous times, cleaning the registry between attempts I was completely lost.
I was about to re-install Steam/AC when my son suggested I check Windows Volume Mixer when in a race.
Here is the answer to my issue.
Run ACin a small window instead of full screen. Start a Race.
R/Click the Sound icon on the Taskbar and open Sound mixer.
H/Scroll to the right and there it was, AC volume was set to minimum, thanks Microsoft. I didn't know it had a separate control.
Set the slider to max and everything is great again.
This took days to find so I hope it helps someone else.
