Thanks Axel for finding it!
But I want to see that nice OSD to know how high the volume is so my
search continued but then I found this neat shellscript:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/12766/adjust-volume-via-commandline-so-
that-volume-notify-pops-up
So I changed your ~/.xbindkeysrc so that it posts the volume with the nice
notify-OSD also.
It's an ugly hack but hey, it works =)
///////////////////////////////////
gedit ~/.xbindkeysrc
/////
# Increase volume
#"amixer set Master playback 1+"
"sh ~/.volumeHack.sh up -i 2% -m Master"
m:0x0 + c:123
XF86AudioRaiseVolume
# Decrease volume
"sh ~/.volumeHack.sh down -i 2% -m Master"
m:0x0 + c:122
XF86AudioLowerVolume
# Toggle mute - this is not used here
#"amixer set Master toggle"
# m:0x0 + c:121
# XF86AudioMute

gedit ~/.volumeHack.sh
