Comment (by eriktorbjorn):

 Even sneakier:

 Start with the global setting as "Subtitles", i.e. , suppose the global
 setting is "Subtitles", i.e. the [scummvm] section will have

 {{{
 subtitles=true
 speech_mute=true
 }}}

 Add the game, overriding the Audio settings, but do not touch the
 Speech/Subtitles setting. The game will now have:

 {{{
 speech_mute=true
 }}}

 Because the `speech_mute` setting is ''always'' saved, even if `subtitles`
 is not.

 Change the global setting to "Speech". The global options are now:

 {{{
 subtitles=false
 speech_mute=false
 }}}

 And the game settings are still

 {{{
 speech_mute=true
 }}}

 When you start the game, technically it will have neither speech nor
 subtitles. Though fortunately the engine will treat this as voice only, it
 seems. When editing the game settings, ScummVM will complain but recover:

 {{{
 WARNING: Wrong configuration: Both subtitles and speech are off. Assuming
 subtitles only!
 }}}

 Not as bad as it could be, but it still feels wrong to me.
