I'm working as software developer in a rather loud room with lots of distractions, that's why I've got my headphones on most of the time. However, whenever I leave for a meeting or lunch or whatever, I usually forget to turn the music off, so that my colleagues are rather annoyed by the hissing sound from my headphones.
What I thought about was this: turn the volume off on screen lock and back on when unlocked. How does one do that on a Windows XP box?
