Created attachment 183426 [details] Video demonstration of the bug SUMMARY Clicking the microphone indicator widget with the left mouse button (LMB) can only mute the microphone, but cannot unmute it. To re-enable the microphone, the user must use the right mouse button (RMB) to open the context menu, then open the "Mute" submenu. Surprisingly, the mute checkbox is not enabled, even though the microphone is muted. To unmute the microphone, the user must check the box manually, then reopen the menu and uncheck it. Only after this sequence does the microphone turn back on. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Click the microphone indicator widget with LMB — the microphone gets muted. 2. Click again with LMB — nothing happens, the mic stays muted. 3. Right-click (RMB) on the same widget. 4. Open the "Mute" submenu — the checkbox is not checked, even though the mic is muted. 5. Manually check the box. 6. Close the menu and open it again via RMB. 7. Uncheck the box — only then does the microphone become enabled again. OBSERVED RESULT The microphone can be muted via LMB, but cannot be unmuted the same way. The "Mute" checkbox appears unchecked, even though the mic is actually muted. EXPECTED RESULT Clicking the widget with LMB again should unmute the microphone. Also, the mute checkbox should be visibly checked when the mic is muted. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 42 KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.16.0 Qt Version: 6.9.1 Kernel Version: 6.15.6-200.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 12 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-11400H @ 2.70GHz Memory: 16 GiB of RAM (15.2 GiB usable) Graphics Processor 1: Intel® UHD Graphics Graphics Processor 2: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Would it be possible to replace the muted microphone icon in the widget with the one shown in the "Mute" menu when accessed via right-click? That icon more clearly indicates that the microphone is muted and is visually more noticeable than the current one.

I can confirm this issue.
This was also broken for me but seems to be working now. Tested on: Operating System: Fedora Linux 43 KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.7-300.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
Unfortunately, the problem is still relevant for me. Operating System: CachyOS Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.7-5-cachyos (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 12 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-11400H @ 2.70GHz Memory: 16 ГиБ of RAM (15.3 ГиБ usable) Graphics Processor 1: Intel® UHD Graphics Graphics Processor 2: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU Manufacturer: HP Product Name: Victus by HP Laptop
Tested with another system I had the issue on but its also working now. Wondering what differs in our stack? Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20251120 KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.20.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.8-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 5600H with Radeon Graphics Memory: 16 GB of RAM (15.0 GB usable) Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon Graphics Graphics Processor 2: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU Manufacturer: HP Product Name: Victus by HP Laptop 16-e0xxx
Okay I still have an issue: clicking the icon changes the status, but the OSD shows the opposite of whats actually happening. E.g. muting -> OSD shows 100% unmuting -> OSD show muted
