programs sound unmutes itself

[techtitan100]

I am trying to record music from spotify to download onto Windows Media Player and I am on facebook talking to somebody and to turn off the sound when somebody messages me I go and mute internet explorer and when I close the mixer, internet explorer unmutes itself, is there a way to where I can fix this

When I want to record something, I'm not doing anything else. Just that function so as to not interfere. If you are trying to download/record at the same time you are on facebook or some other internet site that could be the problem.
