When Airfoil Satellite is running, it appears as a system menubar item (i.e., an icon in the main menubar, grouped with others like Sound, Bluetooth, etc., on the right hand side).
I wrote a macro to select the "Mute" item in this menu, which is a toggle (checked = muted, and vice versa).
The odd thing is that when triggered, the macro runs, but its effect is only applied after I manually click the menubar icon for Airfoil Satellite.
In other words, music is playing via Airfoil Satellite, I trigger the macro, music continues to play, I single click the Airfoil Satellite menubar icon, music stops and "Muted" is checked. (Same sequence to unmute.)
Any ideas on how to fix this? Here's what the macro looks like:
Not super elegant; I just mimicked the behavior I described above (effect applied after I click the icon).
So in case anyone else has the same issue, here's my solution (and in the second action, I also selected the "Restore Mouse Location" option from the context menu):
If it helps with your experiments, I did need to turn on the System Settings > Accessibility > Display > Reduce Transparency option in order for KM to consistently find the menu bar applet's icon.
