The key events above are just event labels, and it's up to the desktop system how they are interpreted. Most desktop systems like KDE or GNOME should have the dedicated settings. They can be set up to change the multiple volumes as a single action, but I'm not sure about the details. Alternatively, you can assign "PCM" volume, which controls usually all digital output (in software).

The fact that both volumes were controlled with a single control on 2.6.22 was a pure luck (or a side-effect). It wasn't intended behavior. Originally, the driver code is written to control the volumes of HP and speaker streams separately. This isn't changed between 2.6.22 and 2.6.23. The missing feature (the real Main volume) will be implemented on 2.6.24. (Not for all codecs, but most of them, I hope.)

But do you have an idea how can i fix my setup? Currently i have these .Xmodmap key bindings: keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume keycode 160 = XF86AudioMute Some kde component while take care of the "XF86AudioLowerVolume" and "XF86AudioRaiseVolume" events and change the value of the "master" volume control. This is still happening with 2.6.23-rc5, but the master volume, stopped to be connected with the build-in speakers. When i connect headphones to my notebook the "MacBook-Volume-Up" and "MacBook-Volume-Down" keys still work, but they stopped to work with the build-in speaker, but will work with the headphones plugged in. The problem is, that i use the build-in speakers more often than the headphones. When a headphone is connected the build-in speakers go silent. And i agree with Mr. Juhl that a master volume control should control both outputs, i.e. built-in speakers and headphones.
