Local-muted users keying up triggers attenuation

[imaspeer]

Description

When you local mute a user, you no longer hear them (as intended), but the attenuation feature is still triggered, lowering your other apps volume, when they key up.

I can't think of a situation where this behavior would be useful, and it is annoying when you have e.g. someone constantly keying up without speaking (which usually takes a while to be noticed by server moderators if they aren't using attenuation themselves).

Steps to reproduce

1. In the settings window, Audio Output tab, under Attenuation, make sure "while other users talk" is enabled.
2. Join a server and a channel with at least one other user.
3. Local mute someone in the channel.
4. Have the local-muted user key up (they don't need to actually talk).

Does the attenuation feature work on MacOS?

I don't actually know - it might be that it doesn't :eyes: Unfortunately, nobody answered me when I asked on our Matrix channel :shrug:
