A television receiver has provisions for a second audio program (SAP) and an indication for signifying when the SAP is present and a muting circuit for muting the SAP, both in response to the output signal of a SAP detector. A filter capacitor is coupled to the detector output to prevent flicker of the indicator due to noise. To prevent the filter capacitor from incorrectly maintaining an indication of the presence of a SAP, thereby preventing proper SAP muting, when a new channel is selected, channel change signal causes a semiconductor switch to discharge the filter capacitor.
