The game lowers my system mic volume when i speak loudly.

Hello,

Apex Legends has started reducing my system microphone volume whenever i speak loudly.

Steps to reproduce:
1- Set system mic volume to 100%.
2- Run the Apex Legends game.
3- Speak loudly to microphone.
4- Check out the system mic volume. It'll be reduced.

The issue did not exist before.
I am not sure which update caused this issue.
It seems like the game is trying to replicate "automatic voice gain control" through a different method.

What I've tried:
Disable Exclusive Mode in "Windows > Sound Settings > Recording > Microphone > Advanced".
Verify game files.

The issue is really annoying.
Please fix this issue or add an option to disable this feature/bug/issue.

If you want to grab my DxDiag:
EA Error Reporter ID = edfebb78-60ec-4fdb-b143-aa65d77898fb

Best Regards.
