Can confirm. I personally find this behavior super confusing and think that hitting the global mic/speaker mute buttons should just mute or unmute everything without all this fancy logic. |
Created attachment 135376 [details] Screen recording SUMMARY I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug -- however it leads to the situation where I don't hear any sound until I manually unmute the other device. I got two streams / devices: "Speakers (Internal Audio Analog Stereo) and Simultaneous Output (of Internal Analogue Audio Stereo). When the latter is activated in the plasma-pa applet and I press Fn+Mute, both "devices" are muted or unmuted together. This changes once the audio level of the Simultaneous Output is changed (eg via Fn+Audio Volume Up/Down). In this case this specific device only becomes unmuted. Now pressing Fn+Mute _only_ affects this specific device in contrast to its former behaviour. Please see the screen recording.
