EarCandy is a smart volume manager for PulseAudio that fades applications in and out based on your current activity.
It will automatically mute your music when a Movie or a YouTube video starts. And will mute the video when a Skype call comes in.
EarCandy can ‘sniff’ out applications to tell what kind of app they are meaning less work for you!
It’s easier to watch this app in action than to explain it! Take a peek below:
