It's likely possible in the HTML5 version to trigger audio level changes via JavaScript. Currently, in the Flash-based output, volume is controlled through the compiled player and we don't have access to any exposed functions for controlling volume / mute other than the volume control in the built-in navigation bar.

It's a Storyline player issue. It may be possible to workaround it.
I'll grab 15 minutes this afternoon and build / test one. If it works, I'll post the file and instructions for use.
