Audio Controls
Problem:
I find that in the course of normal playing I occasionally need/want to mute the game. However, I like a lot of the various sounds and music the game makes, so this is never a permanent situation. When I unmute the game, I always have to try to figure out where I like my music and sound effects sliders. This annoys me. [Edit: This issue is only for when you have muted the game prior to logging off. The issue can be seen upon return to the game.]
Proposed Solution:
Save my last music/sound levels on the server so that when I mute the game, unmuting it puts them where I had them last.
Poll:
Anyone else find this to be bothersome?

- I thought this is already what happens? When I mute/unmute, my sliders don't change positions.

Yeah, I just went in and doubled checked. You are correct if you never leave the game. I think what happens to me is actually related to between gaming sessions.
If you have sliders in a super happy place, mute the game, log out (prior to having a chance/remembering to unmute it), and then eventually return to the game... The result is that both sliders are at 0%, the mute checkbox is still checked, and unchecking it leaves the sliders in their new 0% positions.
The next step is always to try to find the music to scraping barnacles noises sweet spot again. - Ahh I see! Then yes I think that's what happens to me as well.
- It's a good point!
