Mute switch is not a physical speaker switch, it operates a software control which silences some sounds but not others.

Turning Mute Switch off will silence Ringer and Notifications.

It will mute the camera shutter in most countries outside Japan.

It will not silence inbuilt Alarm or media.

It may not silence third party alarms or apps.
