How to change Volume settings on Apple TV

Have Apple TV on my iMac. When watching movies or TV series the volume is very faint and difficult to hear dialogue. How can I get normal volumes back?

Apple TV - Volume control issues I recently purchased an Apple TV 4K Model A2843. I installed it onto my Samsung smart TV that also uses a Samsung soundbar. The problem is that when using the Apple TV, the volume lowers by itself. If I try to increase the volume, even when going to full volume, the sound is quite low. This seems to be an Apple TV-only problem since the TV and sound works perfectly when using the Amazon FireStick. I originally purchased the Apple TV to get better performance than the FireStick, however, the volume issue makes it useless. The Apple TV is connected to Ethernet and the TV HDMI. The soundbar is also connected to the TV HDMI in the arc2 slot. Any ideas what is goin on with this?

The Apple TV app’s player window has its own volume slider, which acts as a percentage of the Mac’s volume slider. If either one of them is in a low settings, then the other might be at maximum, with still faint audio. So verify both settings.
