YouTube playing on CarPlay is quite compared to other sources

Okay so this might be a weird one. I like listening to YouTube videos as podcasts while driving. However YouTube is super quiet in CarPlay. I have to turn the volume up to 35-40.

In contrast Spotify or Apple Music is the same level of loudness at 18-22. I have a JBL system.

anyone know what the issue could be?

I had that issue and figured out I had moved my sound too far to the rear.

disable "Stable Volume" in youtube - it's on by default.

I believe it's because YouTube is playing through Bluetooth and Apple music or Spotify is playing through Android Auto/car play.

The truck treats them as different volume controls.

I could be completely wrong but it seems to not happen when I'm just connected to Bluetooth and not Android Auto.
