How do I disable the mute button on tabs? Setting "browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon" to false does nothing

more options

The mute icon only shows on hover and takes up 50% of the tab size so I'm constantly accidentally muting tabs without realizing it and silencing video calls and the like. The top Google result for this issue -- rightfully yelled in all caps because this is an absolutely horrid UX -- says to set browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon to false, but that does absolutely nothing in FF 100.0

That worked, thank you. Not sure how I missed those answers when searching.

Feels like I'm using FireBird 0.6 again. This should be a toggle Mozilla!
