The output volume is starting quiet and then jumping up after about a second.

I'm working on a video mix I started in premiere then moved to audition. I'm working off a Dell XPS 15 9575. Every time I pause and then play the timeline the sound output starts quiet then jumps to what I think is the real volume. The levels are consistent so I know it's not an issue there, but it's making it difficult to accurately mix the video. 

Has anyone had this issue or know what it could be?

What effects, if any, do you have on the tracks?
