Gain reduction exceeded threshold

[dkwo]

I can consistently crash speakersafetyd by playing mpv 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyKTRZcOSGU' at full volume.
Is this expected behavior?

Here's a log summary:

(many lines similar to this)

I can provide full logs full.log from restart to crash, as well as the blackbox (I see both a cvr and fdr file: are both relevant?), and asahi-diagnose asahi-diagnose-20250524-194640.txt

J313 is very bass-heavy and I do plan on retuning it at some point in the future. In the meantime, try turning down the amt parameter for Bankstown to something like 1.05-1.2 in /usr/share/asahi-audio/j313/graph.json and see if that helps. I assume it's the punchy kick on this track triggering this.

Yes, starting around 0:12, crashing after a minute or less.
Changing the amt values like that does not seem to help.
