Feature Request: Mute while not in focus

[RottenBlock]

TADA's new System 3.9 executable will actually mute the audio if the application is no longer in focus. I think this would be nice to have around on a toggle (not necessarily by default) in the Options menu. Just a suggestion, your call in the end.

I like to think I'm not just requesting this because I had to listen to the System God theme for an hour while debugging yesterday, but I suppose that's part of it.

While we're on the topic, a toggleable mute option in general is probably worthwhile.

This might be a late reply, but there is a utility called "Borderless Gaming" that can mute any app when out of focus. I've been using it for a few games.

Xsystem35 has many types of audio backends, and it is not easy to control them all without causing conflicts when audio-related commands are executed during mute.

If it can be achieved with external tools, I am reluctant to implement it in xsystem35.

By the way, I have also heard complaints about System3.9's behavior of muting when inactive. He had trouble with the music stopping when he switched windows during live streaming. Different people prefer different behavior. :-)
