The problem is caused by having Volume Protection turned on. I guess it only allows a limited change in volume at one time. Volume Protection is a nice feature, so it would be nice to figure out how to still have it on and have Set Volume work when increasing the volume.

It seems that Volume Protection is working as intended and it would not be good to bypass this in Alexa.

Volume protection is not meant to stop you making normal changes to the setting. With Volume Protection on, you can click anywhere on the slider and the volume is changed. If the volume is at 20% and you click on 80%, the volume goes to 80%. even if volume protection is on. Seems like the Set Volume command should behave the same as clicking on the volume slider. My guess is that whatever mechanism you are using to set the volume is different than clicking on the slider and is getting caught by volume protection as an unintended side effect.
Volume Protection is a pretty commonly used feature. I think the Set Volume command needs to work with it enabled, just like clicking on the slider does.

Volume Protection will stop you from making a big change like that. That's the entire reason behind volume protection.
I have used it for many years and really appreciate it.

But shouldn't is function the same as clicking on the volume slider? This is not an uncontrolled increase, it is just the same as on the volume slider.
