why is volume control button turning off volume and not adjusting volume only?

when i push volume control it turns off volume completely and does not control volume at all. i found this out the hard way when using GPS while driving and tried to turn up volume and lost sound altogether. it does not toggle back on. thought i was doing something wrong in GPS system. then this morning while using the timer, i tried to adjust volume and it turned off sound completely.

If you press the down volume button long enough, the sound will be muted or turned off, as you've stated.

Yup, kind of a quick shut down of the sound. Comes in handy :)
