Except for the Music Player my device doesn't make any sounds in Silent Mode. Even Games (Angry Birds, Scummvm) don't play sounds.

torpedo48: "This is not true, at least it has never happened to me."
To be precise, you have never noticed the sound of incoming e-mail in silent mode.
I have noticed it many times.

I personally can say with 100% certainty that I experience no system sounds when the silent profile is activated. The phone does however vibrate, as it should when emails or SMS' are received. I've also just tested, and Youtube does in fact play sound while in silent mode, though I can't say I've noticed any other apps play sound while in silent.
In my opinion, silent mode should be a global mute/unmute button. It's plain ridiculous to activate what most people would assume is a mute, and then have it not enforced by the system. It's even more egregious that this is how every phone has worked since forever.
I think the devs are wrong - you are setting the phone to silent mode, not just system sounds.
Alarms however, do override the silent mode - again, it's an alarm so I think it's right that it should.

Since mplayer and pianobar silence with silence mode it's gotta be setting a system volume down.. but the official media player apps such as Youtube and Music use a different volume area that gets around the "silencing".
I guess the logic would be that if you open a Media App, whether in silent mode or not, you probably want to listen to media?
This makes me curious where the sound output levels are stored..
If I've helped you or you use any of my packages feel free to help me out.
