You can't tell by the icon if the volume is at zero by reducing it until the
mute icon appears, or at any volume but under the effect of the mute button
that some notebooks have that will also make the mute icon appear.

Both mutes will react differently when the volume is raised slightly be the
user, which could lead to situations which the user thinks it's a 0 volume
mute, but it's actually a mute button mute, which can hurt the ears of a
headset wearer, or wake up everyone at night.

As I've said in the Description, "0%" and "Fn + 🔊" could work to make the
distinction between the two types of mutes.
