MonitorControl: Not able to mute in latest version
Before opening the issue, have you…?
- Searched for existing issues
- Read through the Monitor-Troubleshooting Wiki
- Updated MonitorControl to the latest version (if applicable)
Describe the issue
I have a Dell U3419W and use monitor control. Recently I updated to latest version. In previous versions I could reduce the volume to 0 and sound would cut off. However , in latest version I can control the volume but it doesn’t mute if I reduce the slider to 0. I have tried enabling ‘Enable Mute DDC Command’ however monitor still doesn’t mute.
Expected behavior
When slider goes to 0, volume should mute.
Anything else?

I can confirm that mute does NOT work on Samsung C34J79. I can hear sound if the slider is at 0%. This is in 4.0.2.
Oh!
"Enable Mute DDC command"in advanced settings did work immediately, thank you so much!I added a bug label to this one but I am not sure how to handle this. Display firmware implementation for mute varies a lot among displays and any way I change the code some number of users/displays will have issues. 😕 We’ll have to delve into this later, but did put a lot of time into trying to fix this one before, the current implementation seems to be compatible with most (but obviously not all) displays.
