iPhone (SDK 2.2): adusting playback volume while NOT actively playing music w/ AVFoundation?

Question

Answer 1

so you want to disable ringer playback volume as long as the app is running? therefore the hardware controls will only adjust the app playback sounds?

i dont think this is possible unless you are "always playing sound" for example, many games are always playing background music or what have you.
