I was playing with this a little more. If I do
amixer -q sset Master mute and amixer -q sset Speaker unmute It works! (mute the "Speaker" device, and unmute the "Master" device works too.). I can't mute/unmute the same device. It wouldn't be too hard to write a shell script to determine the current state, and either mute the master, or unmute the Speaker. (With more work you could find all the available devices[1] and unmute each one. Someone may already have this.). You could change the keybinding (in the lubuntu-rc.xml file mentioned in my previous email) to execute your script instead of the amixer command. I wrote something like that to toggle the mousepad. It's not too complicated. On Fri, Sep 15, 2017 at 2:50 PM, Mark F <azday...@gmail.com> wrote: > My mute/unmute key does the same. I press FN+F11, But, it works the same > way.
