en | Does exactly what it needs to do. Has a simple option to mute all tabs by default, which is what I was looking for and what no other addon provides. |

"Music ducking" was exactly what I was looking for! I like to listen to music while I study, but frequently my online classes will have short videos mixed in with the reading. This automatically mutes my music while I watch the video and then unmutes when the video is over. Solved a major annoyance for me. Thank you! | |

it's really wonderfull extension for tabs you can use this when you can't mute incomming sound from page directly. | |

Mutes tabs when you switch a different tab to the foreground, but crucially does not _unmute_ that previously muted tab if you move it back to the foreground. It's hard to understand why it hasn't been designed so allow you to simply have the foreground tab unmuted and all others muted, automatically. Perhaps it's an API limitation, but it renders this useless for me. | |

the keyboard command options didnt show up for me in my extensions page, but I tried hitting alt+shift+m and I'll be damned, its almost like the Chrome devs didn't disable a useful feature in place of a shittier one. I'd recommend to anyone in need. |
