Public bug reported: In Lucid beta the mute button now toggles instead of forcing sound off. I think it was a deliberate design choice that it always forced sound off; on Thinkpads, it always forces sound off in Windows too, I believe, and even before the OS boots e.g. the power-on beep. It makes it easy to "double check" that sound is off (by just pressing Mute, you know it's off). It's easy to turn sound back on by pressing volume keys.
