Each song starts with one second of high volume

[h0rseman719]

Each song starts with one second of high volume . . . then immediately drops back to normal volume to play to rest of the song. The high volume is very loud and startling. It happens regardless of output device (headphone, internal speakers, bluetooth speaker). Pandora on the web plays fine (no loud start to the songs), so does iTunes (plays fine). All my stations have this problem, and it occurs regardless of volume settings (system volume and Hermes volume). I'm on a MacBook Pro with Sierra (10.12.4) Any ideas what may be causing this problem with Hermes and how to fix it? Thanks.
