Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: alsa-utils
I run Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron E1505. This comes with some volume
control buttons on the front side of the keyboard. When I was running
Hardy, the mute button, volume-up button, and volume-down buttons
worked. Now that I upgraded to Intrepid, the mute button no longer
works, although the volume-up and volume-down buttons are still fine.
Note that I can still mute and unmute through all of the usual GUI
interfaces. I believe that the interface between these buttons and GNOME
is handled through the Keyboard Shortcuts, which I find under System ->
Preferences. This describe the mute button as XF86AudioMute, which may
or may not be what it called the mute button under Hardy. (The volume-
down and volume-up buttons, which work, are called XF86LowerVolume and
XF86RaiseVolume.) If I set a new Keyboard Shortcut by pressing the mute
button, it returns XF86AudioMute again, but the button still doesn't
work.
** Affects: alsa-utils (Ubuntu)
