Is there the ability to turn off game sounds, as well as QN and system sounds? If not, that would be extremely useful. I wouldn't always use it, but if I were in a place where I couldn't turn my volume down on my note-taker and wanted to mute my sound so as not to be disruptive, I would definitely do it.
what situation couldn't you turn your volume down unless you rely off of speech and in that case the speech would do a lot more invading than the sounds would
I turn it all the way down and the speech off but I can still hear the sounds and it makes me self-conscious hah. XD
you may be able to hear them yeah but they may not carry far and i thought the /sounds toggle turned all sounds off, it has for me at least
Not for me. Only system sounds and QN's. But the game sounds still work.
ya it should turn them all off. Which game?
Hahaha. A time I can see turning off all sound being useful is if you're playing on the Zone in class, when you should be doing other things. I used to play games in school, and have to use headphones or keep the volume extremely low. This was well before the Zone came along, but you get the idea.
/sound should turn all sounds on/off.
I often have all my sounds turned off if I'm on the zone and not alone in the house etc - it does have its uses...
@Jage: Anagram Mania and related games, but thoe are the only ones I've tried to play when this happened.
@Dawn: Guilty as charged. XDDDDD I solved the problem by doing the earbud thing. I only do this when class is moving slow and I need to keep awake. Hah. Or when people are doing an assignment I can't do or already have done. But surprisingly, it's so mindless that I can still pay attention.
Okay, I have finally figured out what is going on with this. Even when I tell the Zone to turn off sound, my Braille Sense doesn't. But my laptop does. Braille fail. Oh well, that solves the problem, I guess.
