How can I disable "tab muted" icon?

I muted all my tabs with extension, and the icon is annoying as it's everywhere. I want to keep them muted because of random shit-pages that play random audio ads and crap, but with no icon.

Try to set this pref to false on the about:config page to hide this icon.

  • browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

Hi  !

You can disable that icon in the about:config page :

Type in the address bar about:config (press Enter) (promise to be careful, if asked) Type and look for the preference : browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon and set its value to false

Note : As of the latest Firefox version media in a background tab will not be auto played until you select or focus on it.

Edit : Looks like cor-el posted (almost) the same answer while I was typing

Hello, browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon doesn't change the muted icon, it hides only the icon that shows that tab is playing when it's not muted.

I need to hide icon that tab is muted.

Setting the above mentioned value of that pref should do it.

Do you by any chance have an add-on installed like 'Noise Control'  ?

If so : would you please remove it  ?

I don't think I have any other extension installed. It's Firefox Quantum, here is screenshot:

The tabs without "muted" icon were open before extension was enabled.

And I did restart the browser after I changed this option. After restart all icons are gone, but for every tab I open they again show

Could you check, just to make sure  :

3-bar menu => Add-ons => Extensions

Forgot to ask : which extension  ? And : did you remove it  ?
