Public bug reported:

CID: 201406-15271 Dell Latitude E5550

The microphone mute key does not work at all.

Key event cannot be captured by "xev" or "sudo showkey -s"
But keycode 248 would be returned when testing with sudo showkey -k

Alsa info:
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=006099fcf08709c82a74dba986a907a602a868ab

Also note that with file at /etc/udev/hwdb.d/60-dell-mic-mute-hotkey.hwdb 
generated with the following content:
# Dell platform kernel driver 
keyboard:name:Dell WMI hotkeys:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnDell*:pn*
 KEYBOARD_KEY_150=f20 # Mic mute toggle

And with udev database updated: sudo udevadm hwdb -u

The microphone mute key works, but the mic mute led does not work.
(Also the icon is not correct, which show a speaker instead of a mic)
