Any way to mute the music directly on the head unit, not just the remote?

There is a pause/play button I haven't tried it with anything but the cd. My only issue so far is not being able to see display in sun. Also had issue with "standard" install hole not lining up during install. I really like the player, though.

I have found no way too. However I have not synced it to my television but it appears to only cover volume and channel buttons for TV use. There is no clear input button on the remote.

There is no actually mute button on the device. The only way I can think of muting your mic is through the game you are running.

I just change the volume on the device that is playing, like my iPhone for example. Hope that helps!

You can turn it off. Go to page 50 in the Operations manual. You can find it on the CD that came with the stereo or online at http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/AVIC-8000NEX_OperationManual030714.pdf

First off, complain to Sony. If enough other people do, they might just make a firmware upgrade with a setting to turn this off. In the meantime, you could use a learning remote like the Harmony series for example to mute the sound before turning off the tv and unmute sound (a volume down keypress may be the surest way to do this) after turning on the tv. Alternately, you should be able to disable the internal speakers with one of the menu options or at least turn the volume down to zero and simply use external speakers. Even a cheap stereo CD player and radio may have more bass than tv speakers anyway. First off, complain to Sony.

I can do it with my DirectTV remote. It will only control volume. Can't get it to change the Speakercraft's inputs.

yup - double tap the sensor on the ear piece to mute/unpute. slide your finger up/down the sensor on the earpiece to turn volume up/down.

Yes! That's what we do. Just turn down the volume button and do not enable the radio or other sounds (water, birds, etc)

Sorry, but I am coming up with the same thing as you. The only thing I can figure is that you may just tap it for mute and hold down for off. I have not had a chance to try this yet so I am just guessing. Hope this is of some help.

Yes, no problem. You can also put the TV on mute and the sound will only come from the speakers

Yes. Tap the volume/mute button on the side of the headset until you hear the message "mute".

There is a "bass mute" button below the display. Try this first, but I don't know if this would mute "your own bass lines" too.

The unit itself? Unfortunately no. The only way you can remotely turn volume down is if you can turn it down from the source. Hope this helps..:)

Almost forgot, I don't have my TV here, but is there any automatic sound adjust in the setup menu you can turn off?

Sondra, there appears to be no way to defeat the "MUTING" on-screen display. If it is too bothersome you could always turn the volume all the way down. It only takes about three seconds.

No, the only volume control is for the headphone jack, but it is only on the cd player not on the remote.
