As the title says. When pressing the key combination for muting the mic, it doesn't mute it.

Executing the following command has no effect.

qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kmix org.kde.kglobalaccel.Component.invokeShortcut 'microphone_mute'

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Press the key combination for microphone mute

OBSERVED RESULT
The microphone doesn;t get muted.

EXPECTED RESULT
The microphone should be muted.

I think I have the same issue - pressing the global keyboard shortcut for "mute microphone" does not mute audio input and the "microphone is recording" icon in the system notification tray isn't showing the "crossed out microphone".

Apparently the "mute microphone" keyboard shortcut only mutes the first microphone, while using the microphone icon in the system notification tray to mute will correctly mute all the microphones connected to the system.

That didn't work for me either, and I believe the problem is that "microphone_mute" is not an available shortcut. `org.kde.kglobalaccel.Component.shortcutNames` suggests "mic_mute" which does work for me, with the above caveat.
