It's actually the LMS code, not iPeng, that multiplies the current
volume by -1 on a mute command, effectively toggling the mute state. I
also like that behavior. What I don't like is that, when the LMS player
receives an incremental (+/-n) volume change command while it is muted,
it first sets the volume to 0 before applying the change. For instance,
the volume is at 47, a mute command changes it to -47 and then a +3
volume change causes the volume to be set to 3, contrary to the behavior
of every AVR I have ever owned or operated. My position is that it
should instead first be unmuted (* -1) instead of set to 0.  I opened a
change request but it was immediately closed without much discussion
other than stating that the way it currently works seems more intuitive.
I strongly disagree and plan to pursue this further in the SB forum.

P.S. Personally, I have no problem with the relay clicking noise.
