PC randomly auto-muting and locking mute

I've been having this issue, increasingly, over the last month or so.

My pc will seem to arbitrarily mute itself while I'm watching a video in the background. It doesn't seem to matter if it's streaming or playing MPC-HC. When I try to raise the volume, it drifts back to mute. The only way I've found to get any sound again is to shut down and restart.

Then I can raise the volume without it automatically lowering itself. I updated to the latest Realtek audio drivers, which is super annoying because I lost my Audio Manager interface.

Really annoying 😡
