Find out if WP7 is in silent mode

Question

Does anyone know how to find out if a WP7 is on silent/vibrate mode in a silverlight app? I need to fix my app from playing sound effects when it is on vibrate.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Will MediaPlayer.IsMuted work?

Here is the discussion that pointed me there where they suggest that it should be usable from silverlight. http://forums.create.msdn.com/forums/p/64166/392704.aspx

As you can see by checking these classes : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.phone.info(VS.92).aspx there is currently no way in getting the devices sound settings, not even in Mango, and not in NoDo, too. Sorry.
