Option to remove Background "music" (both in home and in desktop through airlink)

[MikonosWhat]

The title is pretty self-explanatory. Sometimes I want to watch Netflix on my vr and I can't because of that annoying background sound that's constantly playing. Please add an option to remove it!!! Urgently!!

Yes i agree, it bothers me when trying to watch something from the browser.

Please le us control this sound or at least switch it of.

Can we still not turn this off, or did I miss the solution?

Unless they're intentionally trying to give user's the experience of living with tinnitus there's no reason the "music" should go on more than 10 seconds when booting up. It certainly should not remain on over other noises from a browser or non-dedicated application. There shouldn't be an option to turn it off, it should just be turned off after 10 seconds no matter what.

Really funny that this is not an option yet, I can picture meta engineers and managers patting themselves on the back since they made the Perfect background sound, they really though people would want to hear this for hours and one would never want to turn off. Im really just laughing at this whole situation. Simple option, can't do.

This is software development in the future folks, half backed products, v0s, and bugs is all we have for now. The team responsible is probably just implementing tracking somewhere else if they werent laid of by now.

It's so annoying. Please give us an option to able to turn it off.

I found a solution that worked with my setup: Meta Quest Pro connected via PCVR link cable.

Adjust the "Dash" volume slider in your windows sound mixer

1. While in the PCVR "home" environment (pronounced: the void) where the ambient music loops, open a window to your Desktop from the Dash and turn the volume up a little bit (it will help in the next steps).
2. Open Volume Mixer: Right-click the Sound icon on the Windows taskbar and select 'Volume Mixer'.
3. Find the "Dash" application that is registering audio, it is different from the "Headphones (Oculus Virtual Audio Device)". In the mixer, locate the slider for "Dash" and adjust the volume to 0.
4. The ambient dash music should now be gone and sound from everywhere else should still work.

Finally, I am rid of that god-forsaken ambient loop. Sweet relief!

Does this remove the sound when you're not connected?
