Overview
This extension mutes previous audible tabs when a new tab starts making sound. Toggle mute current tab: Cmd+Shift+8
This extension lets you control mute status of multiple tabs. Often while you're listening to something from one tab, another tab starts to make sound. This can be annoying. So this extension will automatically mute the previous tab that was making sound. It works like a stack - think a stack of cards, only the one on top is visible - similarly, only the last tab that's making sound will be allowed to stay unmuted. Once the current audible tab stops making any sounds, the previous tab will be unmuted again. There are a few keyboard shortcuts you can use: Cmd+Shift+0 -> Mute all tabs. Cmd+Shift+8 -> Mute or unmute the current tab. Cmd+Shift+9 -> Unmute all tabs (although, if you have multiple audible tabs, only one will remain unmuted, rest will be muted by extension.) Any tabs you mute with these shortcuts will not be unmuted by the extension. You have to unmute that tab with one of the shortcuts. Added an Easter Egg feature - press Cmd+Shift+O to try it. It's not very relevant to this extension, but I don't want to create a new extension just for this functionality which I need.

This easter egg is fantastic!!! I installed the extension to solve one problem and ended up solving 2!

Exactly what I wanted! Just a couple of minor issues/bugs, however... -I need to toggle the extension everytime I restart Chrome/Windows to get it working again. -Keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work on Windows as it doesn't have the cmd key. Ctrl doesn't work either. EDIT - Reply: The toggle I mentioned refers to enabling/disabling the extension itself. What I found was, whenever Chrome/Windows is closed/shutdown, the extension has to be disabled then re-enabled in order to work upon star... Show more

I'm not sure why / how you have to toggle. Toggle what exactly, I am not sure. But to enable keyboard shortcuts, you can go to chrome://extensions/shortcuts and enable a shortcut of your choice.

My only complaint is the icon is too dark I only see a space where it should be.
Shashi KDeveloperJun 2, 2024
Hi - my guess is that you are using a dark background. The icon has transparent background and black outline - if displayed against a dark background, it might not be visible. Try changing Chrome theme perhaps? You also don't really need to interact with the icon - it can be stowed away without losing its functionality. Cheers!
