SUMMARY The volume tooltip in the system tray displays "Middle-click to mute all audio \n Scroll to adjust volume". When turning "Line out" off, the tooltip message doesn't change even middle-click and scrolling doesn't mute or change volume. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right-click on Volume item in system tray 2. Click on "Configure Audio Devices..." (to open "Hardware > Audio" settings) 3. Choose "Off" in "Line out" profiles. 4. Hover Volume item (with red line on it now) in system tray OBSERVED RESULT The tooltip displays the same message, about middle-click to mute, and scrolling to adjust volume. Since no output device is enabled, this doesn't un/mute or change volume. EXPECTED RESULT The tooltip should display something like "No output audio device enabled.", even explaining how to configure audio devices from settings.
