Can you turn the Thunderbolt Display's volume OFF?

I want to connect the Bose Companion 5 system via USB, but my question is how do I turn off the Thunderbolt Display sound while keeping the sound coming from my Bose Speakers?


Thanks in advance, hope someone can answer this, i'd really appreciate it!

Thunderbolt display, thunderbolt storage and networks/NAS

If the thunderbolt display is connected to my home network via ethernet (i.e. to my router)and also to a thunderbolt storage drive (such as the LaCie 4TB 2 big thunderbolt drive), will the storage drive function as a NAS that can be accessed by other devices on my network (e.g. for streaming photos and music to my Sonos, PC laptop, etc without a macbook being connected to the display too)?

Can a Thunderbolt display switch between two computers?

If a Thunderbolt display is the primary display for a Mac Mini, is it possible for the display to switch to a MacBook Air? Without necessarily pulling the Thunderbolt connection from the Mac Mini? (Extra credit if this means the two machines could share the same USB-connected keyboard and mouse, via the same display?)

To the best of my knowledge, there aren't any Thunderbolt console switches yet. I'd prefer never to buy one.
