Floodlight 2 Alarm Siren Low

The siren used to be loud and great as well as the microphone when i first purchased the ring floodlight. Last week I rang the siren and tried to yell at the intruder that came on my property to rob us and he didn't even flinch! My sons were home house sitting and i had ti call him to let them both know! I came home from my trip and had my husband test it out and you can only hear it very low if you are standing under the ring floodlight. The sound doesn't even make it over to my car that is about 8 feet away. Whats the point of the camera if it not to scare away intruders? Is it just made to make my vacation miserable by letting me know “hey… there is an intruder on your property and you cant do anything about it…”?
