Ok, so mute is supported. Then that argument can just be changed to "1"
as a cleanup to follow the current convention.

Got it, thanks.

With those UCM changes the headphone volume appears to be restored even
if pavucontrol now sets the "base" marker at 80% rather than 20% volume
on the X13s (which is much too loud here).

Audio quality seem fine and I'm not hearing any distortion at 20%
volume as some people were complaining about (even if I haven't really
used the headphones myself before).

Sounds like you had a similar fix for the speaker distortion coming soon
too, looking forward to that one.

Johan
