Hi thanks for this detailed answer

   > For the time being (till R14.1.0 is out - possibly end of 2020) you have the following choices:

   > 1) you can mute/unmute from the KMix slider LED, this should work fine with PA already

This works but it is inconvenient since you have to fiddle with controls

Thanks for this but: it does *not work*. 

I just bound it to Win+F1 for testing:
this «Toogle mute» only switches the
master but not the speaker, so it does the same as does Fn-F1

   > 3) you can create a script that calls "dcop kmix Mixer-1 toggleMasterMute", this will mute/unmute the PA master

The script works, nicely

does that mean Ubuntu included?

Would you mind telling me the ppa?

Thanks again

PS I signed this message, since you did the same, some people do
complain, though
