Global push-to-talk is going to be wild for meetings. In the gazillion years when my work laptop finally ships an up-to-date version of Plasma, that is. Still on 5.27. 🫠

    I have already (kind of) implemented this by programming a shortcut into my keyboard, and it was working ok until this week, that I found some "ai asisted" conference apps mute you in-app when they detect your mic being muted for some time, and do not un-mute you afterwards

    I hope this push to talk feature solves that

    Turn the mic volume down to zero instead of muting the mic?

    Not 0, but maybe 1% could work. However, my mic is an external one, when muted/unmuted an status led serves as a visual queue, which is quite helpful. Tinkering with %volume would disable this
