How to mute Discord's sound when a game starts

Create a KeyRoutines routine with Game started and Game stopped triggers. Started by trigger picks the branch, and Mute an app mutes Discord in the Windows volume mixer while you play and unmutes it when the game closes.

Steps

1. 1

   Watch your games

   Add Game started and Game stopped triggers. Leave the game empty for any game in your launchers, or pick one.

2. 2

   Branch on the trigger

   Add an If with Started by trigger set to Game started.

3. 3

   Mute Discord

   In the If branch, add Mute an app for Discord set to mute.

4. 4

   Unmute after

   In the Else branch, add Mute an app for Discord set to unmute.

Tips

• This mutes what you hear from Discord. To mute your Discord microphone or deafen, KeyRoutines Pro has Discord: mute and Discord: deafen steps.
• Game started knows games from Steam, Epic, GOG, Battle.net, EA, Ubisoft Connect, Xbox and Riot, and fires for the game itself, not the launcher.
