Hmh, definitely not. Here, when I mute (wether by middle clicking on the panel or left-clicking on the “mute” button in xfce4-mixer window, the volume is left unchanged, and I get the red cross on the mixer plugin and on the associated chanell in the mixer window xfce4-mixer uses gstreamer to drive the sound stuff, so maybe there's a problem there, wether in gstreamer, pulseaudio if you use it, or even alsa. Maybe your card doesn't really support muting this channel and it then drops the volume to 0 instead of muting, which then confuses the mixer at unmuting time. Could you detail your sound system (software) and maybe try with another channel. Try on another box too, if you can.
