Do you have any more information about the as3 mixer controls?

Sure.

    var st:SoundTransform = new SoundTransform(1.0);
    st.leftToLeft  = st.leftToRight  = 0.0;
    st.rightToLeft = st.rightToRight = 0.0;
    SoundMixer.soundTransform        = st;
Mutes the audio, but if a VPAID component naively checks:

    SoundMixer.soundTransform.volume
they will get 1.0. Most don't even bother checking though.
