So I'm running the Consumer Preview on my desktop. I like to watch Top Gear on Netflix in Google Chrome. However, I am periodically bugged by the volume for Chrome dropping down to 13% from 100%. I have to go into the volume mixer and move it back up again. Then, a few minutes later, it will do it again.

I"m bringing this problem here because I guarantee if I ask Netflix or Google for help, they will tell me that the problem is that I am running a beta operating system. Here are my specs:

Windows 8 Consumer Preview x64 Build 8250
Intel QX9770 Core 2 Extreme 3.2 GHz
Nvidia GTX 295 Manufactured by BFG
8GB of OCZ Gold Series DDR3 1333MHz
Samsung Spinpoint 1TB 7200rpm
Motherboard: Intel DX48BT2

I am using a GameCom Plantronics Headset that connects to the computer via a USB port.

My version of Chrome is 18.0.1025.142 m
