Which side-effects do you mean?

not for me :). on my kubuntu jaunty system the following happens:

1. I press mute once, I get a visual feedback showing  "0%" (a kde widget 
showing this value, don't ask me which one). 
cat /proc/acpi/ibm/volume returns
  level:          14
  mute:           on

2. I press mute again. I get a visual feedback showing "96 %"
cat /proc/acpi/ibm/volume returns
  level:          14
  mute:           on

After 2. the hardware settings are not in sync with the audio controls
of kde.

With the workaround found in /etc/acpi/always-mute.sh it worked before.
I know that this is not the way how audio settings should be taken care
about but at least it returned the expected behavior on a thinkpad
laptop.
