I have the same problem!
The music is awfully nice BUT I love to listen to my podcasts while helping them small goo'sis out.

Ah how can you not like the music? I loved the music. I went from level to level loving and wanting more of the music.

I too love the music. its just that I want to be able to control the volume in relation to other soundsources om my mac. I might have to monitor the mail.app or chat-clients. And sometimes I like to listen to a radioshow, tvshow or a podcast while playing. In this case I want the option to silence the music but keep the soundeffects at an appropriate level.

A kind soul posted a zip of blank music files at the Steam forum. I haven't tried it myself because I'd rather listen to the music than my online friends who mostly sound like Kermit the Frog, but ymmv.

(minor spoiler follows)

One thing I would really appreciate is an option for which song plays on the leaderboard level. I found the first song appropriately serene and meditative, whereas the one that plays later is a bit of a bummer. I don't feel right replacing it as my wife will take a year and a half to finish the game, and I wouldn't want her to hear the wrong music at a pivotal moment in the story. Oh well.
