It depends on which graphical user interface you use. First of all using a Thinkpad there's a good chance that you have a hardware mixer that does process the events but doesn't display anything. I'm not sure though that your model has this hardware mixer. If not you need some software reacting on the key event. For me KDE handles this part of it. Feel free to reassign this bug elsewhere as there doesn't seem to be a bug in acpi-support.

Bug#567645: [acpi-support] Thinkpad T61 volume buttons don't work
Package: acpi-support Version: 0.132-1 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Hi all. On my Thinkpad T61 the volume buttons don't work. I don't really know if this is the correct package to file the bug for, but I thought, since it is an acpi feature I'd try it here. When I run acpi_listen I get events form the buttons in this form: button/mute MUTE 0080 button/volumedown VOLDN 0080 button/volumeup VOLUP 0080 So the buttons are registered somewhere and just don't trigger volume changes. The event names correspond to the action the button should do. Where are those events processed normally? because they seem quite generic. Am I missing something? Some additional package?
