An absolutely classic problem, I am the first to respond I am assuming only because the Super Bowl is on!
I call this the "gain chain" problem. It depends a bit on how you are set up but try the following. Go into the menu on the K3S and turn down the LIN OUT value. I have mine set at 2 I believe. Once you do this you should be able to more finely control the drive level. This is likely to fix your problem at once.
