Query/bug regarding volume slider in games

While playing pubg, sometimes I get a single slider, other times both slider. Having both slider is better because, it let's me control game music volume and friends conversation volume seperately . @Anders_ASUS please look into it

A very annoying bug
It's not a bug. This happens when you activate the microphone in games like PUBG/COD Mobile
Nope, in both cases you can see microphone enabled.
@Anders_ASUS
But even if it's a feature, could you explain the utility of this feature ? A feature which no one wants.
@Anders_ASUS
Games like PUBG uses occasional microphone usage when microphone detects an audio above a certain decibel to reduce noise... So it deactivate the whole call tunnel (or whatever it is called). It's not a bug. It's quite useful if we want to reduce the audio coming from other players' microphone we can directly reduce it from volume key on the side of mobile rather than digging setting everytime you need to reduce voice chat volume.
I could not quite understand, could you elaborate it ?
@Anders_ASUS could you please elaborate what you meant ?
When you activate the mic in pubg this extra volume bar will appear so you can change the volume of others who speak to you. Normally this volume bar will only appear in IM apps or the phone app during a call but PUBG fools the phone to believe that there's an ongoing call, so now it's possible for you to increase or lower the volume of others who are talking.
It's not by our design but you can't call it a bug either. It's a general Android design which Tencent uses in a clever way.
Yes I appreciate this feature. I'm not saying showing both sliders is a bug, it's a very handy feature. But my question, the appearance of both the sliders is not consistent . Sometimes only single slider is shown other times both slider.
@Anders_ASUS
More specifically I want to mention, if headphones are connected, single slider is shown. But this behavior is not natural. Please take a look.
My headphones does not have mic
It doesn't work with any headphone/headset. I understand what you want but this is a discussion you need to have with Google.
May be it will be better if OEMs reports this issue to Google.
