Browser reduces YouTube volume wen rewinding

A while ago I formatted my computer, and installed FireFox for the first time. Ever since installing FireFox, I noticed an issue which has been a constant source of frustration, when I rewind any YouTube video the playback volume changes to a lower value, until I rewind again.

I tried looking online, this is the closest match I've found, but there's no solution there

I tested this issue on different browsers (Edge, and IE), no problems there. I tried disabling extensions, no change. I tried resetting FireFox, no change. I made sure that Windows doesn't automatically adjust system volume. I tested this issue on different Video platforms, no problems there.

I use YouTube when I practice (music), so I rewind a lot.

Any help is very appreciated.

I have this problem in Pop! os, so this MS Windows like misbehavior is likely not Windows related. It manifests itself also when a new song starts playing (YouTube is of course changing to a new site for this) but also on web based Tidal (a better Spotify). I hate it with a passion.
