I tried the "*" and "/" commands on both the numeric row, and the numeric keypad, to no avail. Nor did "mute" work. I just got a lot of gabbling from my
synthesizer.

Hello all:
Actually, mplayer can control the pcm volume for your computer directly
from its interface. The "/" key lowers the volume and the "*" raises
the volume. I am not sure if it has mute. This volume is the same as
the pcm volume in your mixer application. I use it all the time.
Actually, I just tested it and it does have mute also. The key for mute
is "m". You can press "m" once to mute the sound and press it again to
unmute it. So, you can do both, use the volume control or use mplayer's
interface.
Hope this helps.
