Workaround: 
System settings >> Keyboard & Mouse >> Global Keyboard Shortcuts >> KMix
There is a keyboard shortcut configured for the action "Mute" (don't know the 
real name, on my german system it is "Stumm"), the key configured for this 
action is named "Volume Mute", but this action has no effect, it only displays 
the volume level on the screen. Below the "Mute" action there are several 
actions beginning with something like "Muting on/off" (german: "Stummschaltung 
an/aus").
Selecting "Muting on/off - Master, HDA Intel" or "Muting on/off - PCM, HDA 
Intel" and pressing the Mute button works for me. It shows nothing on the 
screen, but it sets the corresponding mixer Channel to mute.

Nice would be an action "Muting on - Master, HDA Intel", not "on/off".
This would have the advantages, I described in my previous post.
