The reason the fn + audio keys don't do anything is that the commands in
~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml are lik
<command>amixer -q sset Master 3%+</command>
<command>amixer -q sset Master 3%-</command>
<command>amixer -q sset Master toggle</command>
The problem with this is that amixer can't find anything on my system
with the -c1 option there.
Another problem is taht while toggling master off mutes everything,
toggling it again does not unmute everything.
So, I changed these things in lubuntu-rc.xml to invoke these scripts (I
got some of the ideas from someobody else's post from somewhere else)
volume_up.sh:
#!/bin/bash
CURRENT_STATE=`amixer -c 1 get Master | egrep 'Playback.*?\[o' | egrep
-o '\[o.+\]'`
if [[ $CURRENT_STATE == '[on]' ]]; then
#amixer -q -c 1 set Master mute
cd . # just a noop
else
amixer -q -c 1 set Master unmute
amixer -q -c 1 set Headphone unmute
amixer -q -c 1 set Speaker unmute
fi
amixer -q -c 1 sset Master 3dB+ unmute
volume_down.sh:
#!/bin/bash
CURRENT_STATE=`amixer -c 1 get Master | egrep 'Playback.*?\[o' | egrep
-o '\[o.+\]'`
if [[ $CURRENT_STATE == '[on]' ]]; then
#amixer -q -c 1 set Master mute
cd . # just a noop
else
amixer -q -c 1 set Master unmute
amixer -q -c 1 set Headphone unmute
amixer -q -c 1 set Speaker unmute
fi
amixer -q -c 1 sset Master 3dB- unmute
toggle_mute.sh:
#!/bin/bash
CURRENT_STATE=`amixer -c 1 get Master | egrep 'Playback.*?\[o' | egrep
-o '\[o.+\]'`
if [[ $CURRENT_STATE == '[on]' ]]; then
amixer -c 1 set Master mute
else
amixer -c 1 set Master unmute
amixer -c 1 set Headphone unmute
amixer -c 1 set Speaker unmute
fi
% changes iin volume work too, i just like the progression with +/- 3dB better

Title:
volume keys stop working after brightness keys are used
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have this notebook SONY VAIO YB3V1E/S with AMD E-450
I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Lubuntu)
When I first login, I can use the fn+ audio keys on the notebook to
adjust the volume and mute/umute the audio.
I get the small visual feedback window and the audio feedback as well.
But if I use the fn + brightness keys to adjust the brightness, then
the fn+ audio keys stop working. The brightness keys continue to
work.
If I kill gnome-settings-daemon and start it again, then the fn +
audio keys start working again until I use the brightness keys again.
