Does the headset have an indicator for whether it is muted or not? If it does, how visible/apparent is it?

It does, I don't recall how visible it was. However, the headset is generally awful

Yes, there is an icon in the top row of the screen to indicate if it has been muted,

It's not a lot of noise. I use a headset for work and I can hear easily without having to turn it off.

Yes it does. I haven't had any trouble with people being able to hear me even while use my headset.

Visual volume bar is an option in settings. I don't think you can disable the on-screen mute notification though.

No, the audio plays on the headset and television simultaneously. I find myself turning the television volume all the way down so you can't hear it anymore and just using the headset. It sure helps when don't want to wake anyone up at night.

I never had that issue. The background noise is with NC off, as every noise cancelling headsets. Everything looks fine to me so far...

It works. The only issue I've had has been with headsets that have a mute option, where in order for it to recognize it you must mute it before plugging in and then take off the mute

No, it is not audible in the headset. But, it may affect the person who is trying to hear you on the other line if you are using if for a phone (keep in mind I've experience this with mine - which has an adapter to a 3.5 mm jack, so I don't know if this happens because of the adapter or because of the headphone set up itself)

The blue light indicates that the head set is connected to the computer and is operating. It also reminds you that you may disconnect the head set if you do not need it while you are using the computer other than listening to any audio (function). There is yet another blue light near the junction of the wires that connect the ear pads.This light turns on when the device is muted.

The headset does not come with a mute button. The main piece has one on it. If it is not working you may want to replace.

I do hear that noise occasionally, especially if I'm trying to play softly. However, I don't seem to hear it when I use the headphones. So far, it hasn't bothered me much, or else I'm getting used to it.

No, mine does not. I also own the PC 36 version of this headset and it has mute and volume controls.

I use these daily. I've never noticed an audible noise (or any rustling) when moving, grabbing, or handling the cable during a conversation. However, I did notice, upon closer inspection, that if one grabs or rubs the cable within a few inches of the headset, or taps, grabs, or bumps the headset itself, this can be heard. I attribute this noise as ambient due to its close proximity to the ears and not a fault of the headset or the headset's cable. Great product!

Yes, mine seemed to be doing a Lil extra to make it sounds clear. Since friends said the background was interfering with me telling to them, but they are always clear. Just the ear hook is uncomfortable and doesn't stay with head movement.I used mine mostly for phone, but Xbox is clear, sometimes too clear

Hi Maria, I've never noticed a mute button on my headset. My other headset had it, nevertheless I always use the mute button on the phone directly.

See the answers below - I know no more. The mute light future is helpful. More that once I have thought the headset wasn't working but it was just on mute! Very useful if you are frequently interrupted while dictating as I am. I hold it in my hand and have developed a reflex of pressing "mute" the moment anyone starts talking at me while I'm dictating. without it you can find yourself inadvertently recording a bunch of drivel !

On the side is a rocker type switch that controls volume. The mute and share talk has mystified me, works most of the time, button either cause of my fumbling fingers will also end call. That is on the outside cover right over ear plug. Not as happy with this headset, (but when wearing it forget you have it on) as my legend.
