Music is WAY too loud for chases for older killers

Thanks to the developer team for all the great work you have done.

We've recently seen a spate of QOL improvements for survivors: Anti-Camp, improvement of Decisive strike, the inability to pull survivors when they try to grab a fellow player off the hook. The list goes on and on.

We've even seen another advantage added - the use of a visual heartbeat for survivors with hearing difficulties which it seems all survivors are taking advantage of.

When will we see hearing advantages for killers? For a player in his 50s, it can be very hard to hear survivors over loud music and the myriad of other sounds when in the midst of a chase. I've made lots of adaptations to the sound effects and bought a very good surround sound headset with digital audio, but with no luck in helping me. I understand the point of the chase music, but it's just way too loud and I can't find a way to turn it down. Can killers get a visual cue helper like survivors? Or am I missing a way to optimize the sound?

If I'm not missing a way to tweak it, It seems unfair to help one side with disabilities while leaving the other side to fend for themselves.
