The volume is stuck at one level and won't change

Did you your battery in the remote control?

Try turning it off and on.

Thank you! Switching it off and on again actually did the trick. 😀😁

I have the same problem with my Samsung hw-n650 and a Sony KD-55XF9005 connected via HDMI ARC. 

 

Volume cannot be lowered sometimes. Restarting the soundbar or mute fixes the problem.

Latest firmware is installed.

 

Any fix for this?

Mute or restart is a workaround, not a fix.

Have you tried using a different HDMI cable? Is Anynet+ turned on, on the soundbar?

Still looking for a real fix here. Thanks for calling out the shortcoming in this solution.

Any word from Samsung on what this issue stems from or how to address it?

Have you also tried disconnecting the TV from the Soundbar and pairing it again by pressing and holding the source button n the right-side panel of the Soundbar for more than 5 seconds to display “BT PAIRING?

Oh my god it's not just me! Did you ever find a solution for this? The CEC soundbar control mostly works - volume up always works, but volume down seems to get "stuck" at a random level....you can volume up from there but volume down always gets stuck at that same level until mute or restart.  I'm seeing it on a Sony TV also (xbr-x930e) and a Samsung HW-M550. 

 

And to the other replies...Yes I've tried multiple HDMI cables, yes anynet is enabled (otherwise CEC wouldn't work at all) and no, I have not tried re-pairing Bluetooth, since this is ARC over HDMI - it's not using bluetooth
