After searching a bit further, I found the following instructions to create the correct String:
* Open "Sound Settings" (Alt+F2 and type: pavucontrol). * Select the "Output Devices" Tab. * Annotate the device's name, leaving out spaces and all characters from this list: ()[]-/ * Now add "Playback" to the beginning and "PulseAudioMixer" to the end of name annotated in the previous step. For me the correct value is: PlaybackBuiltinAudioAnalogStereoPulseAudioMixer The instructions were taken from here: http://xubuntugeek.blogspot.ch/2012/05/fix-adjust-sound-with-multimedia-keys.html So it did work finally work for me, by following the instructions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/970009 Title: Volume and mute keys have no effect, but notification box does appear To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-volumed/+bug/970009/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
