Hi, I think the behavior you see is the right one following the spec. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#silent-mode
When you launch a browser that plays any sound you are explicitly playing that sound (similar to what happens when you launch the music app and start playing a song). More information about silent mode can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SilentMode ** Changed in: indicator-sound (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574700 Title: Silent mode does not turn off ALL sounds To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1574700/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
