Summary
With HushBGone you select one tab to be a source of fill-audio. Any audio playing from that tab will be muted whenever audio starts playing from any other tab, and un-muted when all other tabs are silent. You can also choose which tabs to ignore the audio from. Audio playing from ignored tabs will not mute the fill-audio tab.
To select a fill-audio tab simply click on the HushBGone icon. The currently active tab will be set as the fill-audio tab, and the HushBGone icon will turn green.
If the fill-audio tab is one of the tested and supported websites, HushBGone will pause the media player as well as mute the tab.**
