One way to control sound is to pipe the audio through audio hijack. I
regularly use audio hijack from Rogue Amoeba to provide me mute
capabilities on apps that otherwise don't have them. For instance,
although the mlb.com does have mute capabilities, I much prefer to use
the one provided by audio hijack, because it means I don't have to go
hunting for the mute button again after it gets pressed, since vo
cursor doesn't always stay in one place on that page. Simply hijack
the audio, but don't begin recording, and all of the functions of
hijack audio are at your fingertips, the most often used of course
which is the mute button. I use it a lot when watching flash content
online, since vo can't talk to flash itself, it's real hard to mute
audio for something, especially on those pages that insist you really
want to hear what they have to say regardless of what you might think.
Unfortunately, this method can't contro volume, but I thought it might
be helpful anyhow.
