Show HN: Push-to-Talk for Pulseaudio

Maybe it is psychological but I really want to see current mute status visually to rely on it. Else I assume that I am not on mute. This is not really rational if the function works reliably ...

My Thinkpad also has microphone mute button with a LED, so I already have this.

It's pretty simple to add notifications, just change this script to invoke a wrapper script that uses "notify-send" then runs "pulseaudio-ctl":

    notify-send "Muted: $1"
    pulseaudio-ctl mute-input "$1"
