SUMMARY
Audio indicators on the Task Manager can be shown or disabled when an app plays audio. The option to disable doesn't work.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click the Task Manager
2. Click Configure Icons-Only Task Manager...
3. (Icons-Only Task Manager Settings window opens, defaulting to the Appearance page)
4. Untick the "Use audio indicators to mute tasks" option under General
5. Play a video/audio track (like watching an online video)

OBSERVED RESULT
Audio indicators appear while audio is playing

EXPECTED RESULT
No audio indicators should appear while audio is playing when the option is disabled
