Exactly. There have been questions on this forum about "stuck" notes, which turn out to be simply notes being held by the sustain pedal but, when changed from a piano sound to organ or trumpet, suddenly seem to be stuck on. The piano sound, of course, dies away, while the organ continues to sound as long as the 12-year old boy pumps the bellows.
