As the users reported in https://launchpad.net/bugs/595896, there is
no KEY_MUTE either from thinkpad_acpi nor the keyboard when pressing
the mute hotkey. (I do not really possess the hardware. but just
debugged/helped remotely).

It will be really appreciated if there is any suggestion/insight for
looking into the bug.  At the moment I can just find this fix for the
issue.
