Well, the noted forum post shows that the user uses a control that simply has no mute functionality. Quoting: "There is no "Mute" checkbox after clicking the icon, only a scroll bar to change Master volume." Soultion: Select a control with mute functionality, then mute will work. Ok, but there is no output channel with mute function. These are the channels with mute function on my system: - CD - Tone - 3D Control-Switch - Surround Phase Inversion - Line - Mic Boost - Analog Capture Boost Thats it. I just want to mute the output but with these channels it isn't possible. Maybe you can make a workaround? If there is a mute signal and no mute checkbox then save the current volume and set it to 0. If the mute signal comes again restore the old volume. I have refrained from this because it is much work and asks for trouble. - Much Work => mark controls, specially handle loading saving volumes, ... - Trouble => 0 doesn't mean silent in all cases. I already see bug reports coming like "Mute doesn't silence the card completely" BTW: I have personally the same problem (No mute on Master or PCM, only on the individual Front, Rear, Center, ...). So I am aware that this does hurt. Possibly I'll do it in the context of virtual controls, e.g. "Virtual::MuteAll" Feature is now implemented. Possibly since KDE4.10. It was quite much work, especially as it needs special handling in ALL backend implementations. |
