--- Comment #23 from Jan-Matthias Braun <jan_br...@gmx.net> --- Thanks David, this will make fighting the state of art a lot easier! But I have a question/remark: So this button will only disable currently activated sounds? It will not disable sound-output for the application in general? This means, if a new event gets defined and has a default sound configured, then it will not be disabled? I want to make a statement for a general solution to silence notifications, as there are situations when you do want to be able to play sounds, but do generally not want your applications to be noisy. In my special use case this covers every situation -- granted, others might be more selective. And every now and then, I do notice in the worst possible circumstances, that a new audio notification was created and enabled by default, which I have to search for manually to be able to disable it. Therefore, disabling all sounds with a button makes working against the mechanism easier, but it is not a solution if sound notifications are generally not acceptable (e.g., in offices or conference rooms with other people) and muting the whole system is neither a solution. I understand, that the current setup does not allow to suppress all audio notifications at once? Would one have to patch every single application? I would have assumed, that all KDE applications use the same API for notifications, so that a global enable/disable flag should be possible. Does someone already know where to look?
