Modification of the solution proposed in
    https://www.daniweb.com/posts/jump/1909448
for the Mic On/Off script from
    https://gist.github.com/OndraZizka/2724d353f695dacd73a50883dfdf0fc6
'''

# Define the path for the script below, e.g.,
script = "./switchHeadphones.sh"

try:
    # Python2
    import Tkinter as tk
except ImportError:
    # Python3
    import tkinter as tk
import os

def toggle(tog=[0]):
    '''
    a list default argument has a fixed address
    '''
    tog[0] = not tog[0]
    if tog[0]:
        os.system(script+' speak')
        t_btn.config(text='Switch Mic Off')
    else:
        os.system(script+' listen')
        t_btn.config(text='Switch Mic On')

root = tk.Tk()
root.title('Headphone  ')

t_btn = tk.Button(text='Switch Mic On', width=15, command=toggle)
t_btn.pack(pady=5)

root.mainloop()

@vasi786 You have to install tkinter as said by @prietopa:

sudo apt-get install python3-tk

Then run with:

python3 switchHeadphones.py
