Activex player volume

I'm using the code below to play a RTP stream (thrown out by a server running VLC) as a window inside an embedded kiosk-like system. I've successfully worked around the issue whereby occasionally the video fails to render (a valid use for <marquee> tags!), but I'm having trouble muting the stream; the player does indeed load with volume of 0 (it's muted if autoplay=false), but as soon as it starts playing the stream, it goes back up to 100.

Last resort is to configure the server to throw out a second, muted stream and play that, but as that would increase overheads that end and the network, I'd much rather get it working client side.

Any ideas or tips?
