[Bug 42853] Re: Mute conflict between gnome-volume-applet and gnome-volume-manager

[Sean Smith]

This happens for me too. The only way to "unmute" it again for me is to
use my volume up/down from my keyboard and this restores the volume.
However... I'm also experiencing another "symptom" -- but not sure if I
should file it as a separate bug or not. On my system, with an onboard
VIA 8235 (Alsa) AC97 chipset, even when I have the volume slider(s) all
the way down and it claims to be "muted," I still receive sound at a
very low volume through my speakers. It's not until I actually choose to
mute it that the sound stops.
