Butch,

You have to have audio coming from both receivers to notice what happens. 
For example, if you press and hold the A volume control until you hear the 
high beep, the audio from the B receiver disappears.  Press and hold the A 
volume control again, and when you hear the low beep, the B audio will come 
back.  Pressing the B volume control as described above will mute and unmute 
the A receiver.
