Sound check is not working properly??

Recently when i was using my device for the music, i've somehow realised that there's something wrong with the volume of the music. when i click the next song with my device, the volume suddenly rised up. But then when i clicked the next song and then got back to it by clicking previous song, there's not the problem. Then i tried about the sound check. When the song rised up, i turned the sound check to off and on again and the problem is solved, at leadt for the time. But then when i click the next song again, the situation happened again. I tried nearly everything to solve the problem, including restarting the device, closing the music app after double clicking the home button and putting the music again into my device with itunes after deleting them, but without any use. The situation happenes with serveral albums of mine (about five to six) and the others are without the problem. Anyone is gaving the same problem as me? Is that a bug or something? I'm using an iphone 4s of version 5.1.1 . Could someone please help!

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1

I have this problem too and it drives me insane. I can listen to a few tracks and then the volume increases significantly. If I forward to the next track and go back to the track with the issue, the volume is okay.


I've...


  • Having "sound check" enabled in iTunes and enabled iPhone 4s.
  • Having "souch check" enabled in iTunes and disabled iPhone 4s.
  • Having "souch check" disabled in iTunes and enabled iPhone 4s.
  • Having "souch check" disabled in iTunes and disabled iPhone 4s.
  • Used iTunes match and removed iTunes match.
  • Purchased iVolume to check every track in my iTunes library.


I'm 99% sure the fault is on the iPhone 4s.


I previously enabled iTunes match (what a mistake that was), and disabled it again. Not sure if the problem existed before I enabled iTunes match.


If Apple cannot get this problem sorted out soon, I may venture to the other side!

Managed to resolve my issue. Found the solution after reinstalling iOS 5.1.1 on my iPad which was suffering from not being to delete Genius Mix playlists.


The issue is that the iTunes library stored on the iPhone is corrupt. The only way of resolving the issue is to reinstall iOS and copy all existing apps/music/content back to the device.


I've been playing my iTunes libray on my iPhone with about 100 albums and they're all playing at the same volume level. 🙂
