Version: (using KDE 4.1.0) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux The context menu for kmix has a mute option which shows a tick beside it when it is muted. However if you start kmix when sound is muted, it doesn't show the tick but will put the tick there when it is unmuted making the presence of the tick confusing since it really has no relation to the current status of the mute.
I can confirm this behavior in KDE 4.1 from debian packages.
