Mumble Mic problems

So a few people, including myself, have been experiencing problems with mumble. When we start speaking, the volume would spike drastically for >1second. I've searched around but was not really able to find a solution to the problem. Any other details i should add just let me know.

I am one of those people that has the same problem.
I have friends who I exclusively skype with, they say they've never heard it happen, not once. I speak with them like 3-4 times a week on skype, so it's not that they are just lucky and never have had it happen.
This happens pretty often in mumble, which I only know because my team freaks the fuck out when I kill their eardrums.
Any help appreciated.

(I use voice activation btw, maybe that has something to do with it)

EDIT: copied what I said below up here for more visibility

Alright folks, so I think I may have solved the problem.

It didn't happen to me last night while scrimming (which is a first).
What I did was:
-Go to Configure > Settings
-Make sure Advanced is checked
-Simply go down to the Compression settings in Audio Input
-I moved my Quality to 60 kb/s
-I moved my Audio Per Packet to 40 ms

Try this, and hopefully it works!

I have the exact same problem, and as you mentioned, it's very loud.
I use voice activation as well, so that's probably a part of it. :3

Just informed from Saint that some of his teammates that it happens to people who use Push to Talk as well.
So I don't exactly think it's PTT

Edit: Holy fucking ninja'd ^^

It's a mumble bug, we call it the "demon" :D
Haven't found a solution yet though, might try #9.
