org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player should get a Mute property (boolean, read/write).
IMO, this bug is invalid since when volume property is set to 0, it means mute. <tp:simple-type name="Volume" type="d"> <tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <p>Audio volume level</p> <ul> <li>0.0 means mute.</li> <li>1.0 is a sensible maximum volume level (ex: 0dB).</li> </ul> <p> Note that the volume may be higher than 1.0, although generally clients should not attempt to set it above 1.0. </p> </tp:docstring> </tp:simple-type>
The problem is that setting the volume to zero forgets the previous volume. A separate mute property would allow the user to mute the audio, then unmute it again and have it go back to its previous level.
