Hello Yvonne. The hotkey for Skype is a toggle switch in other words if you press it once it will mute the microphone and if you press it again it will unmute the microphone. I would also advise you to consider a different hotkey for this function because this hotkey will interfere with the select Next line command. To find hotkeys within SkypeTalking. You can use the key describer control alt shift k. And to change a hotkey. You can use the SkypeTalking preferences dialog box which can be accessed by pressing the following key ctrl alt shift p. Hope this is helpful.
