The audio icon does not appear until the timer ticks down close to 0.  At that point, the audio icon appears and can be used to mute the timer ticking, but not the voice.

I wonder if this uses some kind of TTS API Chrome provides.  If so, page-triggered TTS should probably be routed such that it is treated as "tab-played audio" so it gets an icon and can be muted.

Not sure who should own this.  ->miu might know.

Because TTS is using native speak synthesizer, it completely by-passes the code that mutes a tab or detects if a tab makes sound. I believe that when called from the Web API, TTS should provide audible indicator and be affected by site/tab muting.

Assigning to dmazzoni@ as he seems to own TTS.

Actually, this seems to be a dup of bug 517317.
