What's the normal behavior of the mute button on the steering wheel?

If the music is playing and I press the Mute button, the music fade into silence.
However, if I press it again silence doesn't fade back in to Music.
It just goes from complete silence to the normal level of music. No fading into
the music nicely. Is this normal?

ok, I guess that is the normal behavior for the mute button in our car.
Because my wife's mute button on he R-350 fade in and out nicely.
Thanks for verifying.
