Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal-info
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
Computer Model: Sony VAIO VGN-S660
With hal-info [20080317+git20080318-1ubuntu4] I hadn't this problem,
but the new version [20081001-0ubuntu1~hardy1] has made some problems:
When I press the mute key combination (Fn+F2) the function is triggered
twice, so for an instant the audio goes mute and then it come back. Also
the volume control key combinations (Fn+F3 and Fn+F4) change the volume
2 steps at once.
Here is the output of xev when I press the mute key combination on my
system:
KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001,
root 0x1a6, subw 0x0, time 6926641, (252,-49), root:(257,0),
state 0x0, keycode 160 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:

XFilterEvent returns: False

XFilterEvent returns: False
But when I press one of the brightness control key combinations, it acts
normally (not displayed correctly by the gnome the-thing-which-shows-
how-bright-is-your-monitor, but its not a problem; before the update,
there was not any gnome the-thing... :P). There are just a pair of
KeyPress-KeyRelease for each of those combinations.
