Hi Terry,
Is it OK to apply? At least we will have a chance to improve user experience in userspace after apply this patch. Looking forward to your comments. Thanks
Regards
Wade

Hi Terry,
1. Per our testing, Poly headset will maintain Mute status at headset side, whatever host send feedback or not.
2. Mute led is off when Poly USB headset connect to host, so host will keep same Mute status with headset because of toggle Mute key event.
3. Even Ubuntu and Chromebooks have to feedback Poly headset mute state, it should be done at user space instead of kernel. The precondition is kernel should report Mute key event first, then user space has chance to do this kind of improvement in future
So following standard HID rule is necessary.
BTW, on MSFT Windows, After receive mute key, the host switch the mute control status of the audio control interface, whatever mute status in headset FW is correct or not. I think it make sense than LED page mute LED.
Thanks,
Wade

Hi Wade,
I retired from Plantronics in 2020. The original driver did not allow mute button to be mapped as there were mute synchronization issues.
The headset needs to receive some type of feedback from the host when it sends the mute event in order to synchronize with the host, ideally the host setting or clearing the mute control in the audio control interface but setting/clearing the mute LED would also work.
At the time Ubuntu and Chromebooks did not feedback mute state and it was possible to mute from the headset and then unmute from the mixer or keyboard and the headset would stay muted. The only way to unmute was with the headset button. This was an unacceptable user experience so we blocked mapping.
If you want to try mapping mute event then you also need to allow mapping the mute LED for possible host feedback.
(HID_UP_TELEPHONY | 0x2f) is telephony page mute button (HID_UP_LED | 0x09) is LED page mute LED
Then you need to test more than just the event getting to user space.
You need to check mute synchronization with the host mixer under all mute/unmute use cases.

Terry Junge
