    Got the prompt and installed this latest version + the firmware update on my Z15. Now my volume wheel is very erratic scrolling up or down - if I scroll up it'll jump up significantly or down all the way to mute.
     
    Any ideas why this is happening? Literally started after the update today.
     
    Never mind for now - full shutdown / unplug USB seemed to fix the issue for now 
     
    It's still erratic but not as bad as it was before. Please still look into anything that changed in the software / firmware that may have affected the sensitivity / input.
     
    Ok, it's still happening just not as often. Really annoying that it keeps ramping up / down as if it's accelerating?

    Just installed it yesterday and so far no problems. One thing for anyone installing it, make sure if you have an EVGA mouse and keyboard you click on the keyboard on the top of the Unleashed RGB to go into the keyboard settings. When you do it should do a firmware check on the keyboard. While in the mouse settings it doesn't seem to check the firmware for the keyboard.

    I've also updated the firmware to the latest 1.31 but the issue still persists. Can also note that installing older versions of unleashed makes no difference.
     
    I do have the issue repeatable now: it's triggered by scrolling the volume by 1 in either direction - the volume will quickly go to mute (scrolling down) or max (scrolling up) which is really annoying. @EVGA - any ideas? Is there a firmware version I can try downgrading to for now?

    Just installed that issues went away but scrolling wheel bad which feels like is hardware problem not software. scroll wheel feels too rough and jumpy. RMA time

    Anyone happen to know if there is a way for the shift key to work within a macro?  It seems to "ignore" the keystroke when it plays back the macro.  So instead of producing a "!" a "1" is produced.  Also has anyone found a way around having to turn off the and on the number lock within a macro in order to have the arrow, home, end, and page up and down keys not replicated as their number pad counter parts (like left arrow produces a "4" and home produces a "7" when the macro plays back)?  I am hoping that I am just missing something and there is an easy fix that I am just overlooking.  Thanks for any help with these.

    Volume scroll wheel is extremely sensitive.  Just a touch and volume will go up or down 20-30.  Have to keep readjusting until I get where I want.  Using volume button on my speakers, instead, for now

    Yup, glad it's not just me - not a hardware issue but firmware / software related after the most recent update. @EVGA - any ideas?

    Same volume control issue as others here.  EVGA, FIX THIS ASAP PLEASE. 
     
    This bug carries with it the risk of speaker damage for those of us who run higher power audio systems connected to our PCs.  I, for one, don't enjoy having the volume ramp uncontrollably to 100% when I'm not expecting it.
     
    Not only does the volume ramp on it's own to 0% or 100%, the keyboard then *continues* to send never-ending volume_up or volume_down keycodes until the roller knob is jogged again -- Nice.

    Unleash Version: 1.0.16
    Z15 Firmware: 1.31
     
    I can also report that after updating the software and my keyboard firmware, my volume scroll wheel can continue "scrolling" the volume continuously all the way up or down unless I am very careful with stopping the scroll wheel when adjusting volume.

    Wondering if a firmware update can fix the keyboard not being recognized on boot at sporadic times. Specifically the Z15.
     
    The problems with the X17 mouse is that sometimes the RGB is unresponsive to software control.

    I also have this problem on wake from sleep.  Maybe coincidental, but I can add that it had seemed to be gone for a while, but returned certainly after the last update.
     
    After resuming from sleep, the only way to use the keyboard is to unplug it and plug it back in.
     
    Most debilitating for me though, is the volume bar instability.
