Hi Jarkko,

Thank you very much for your response! I did the procedure you described and it 
solved the problem! Brightness function keys started working properly in Ubuntu.
I repeated this procedure on other ZBook Studio G5 laptops we have here and it 
also did the job.
However! I have dual boot - after logging into Windows 10 (where buttons always 
work perfectly fine) and then logging again into Ubuntu brightness keys stopped 
working again (they were recognized as Microphone key, again). I had to do the 
Power Reset procedure once more which fixed the issue in Ubuntu.
After testing multiple restarts Ubuntu -> Ubuntu: brightness function keys are 
always working fine.
After just one Ubuntu -> Windows -> Ubuntu restart: brightness function keys 
stop working in Ubuntu (but work fine in Windows).

So each time after I used Windows I must do the Power Reset procedure if
I want to have brightness function keys working in Ubuntu.
