sorry, Perhaps I didn't explain very well. Xev reports the keycodes
correctly, so it is working, but the symbols aren't set. I'm sure if I
used xmodmap I could get them working, but it should work by default.
Here are the outputs from Xev:

  Volume down press:
KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x57, subw 0x3200002, time 2732093, (46,41), root:(48,57),
    state 0x0, keycode 174 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

  Volume down release:
KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x57, subw 0x3200002, time 2732093, (46,41), root:(48,57),
    state 0x0, keycode 174 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

  Volume up press:
KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x57, subw 0x3200002, time 2732996, (46,41), root:(48,57),
    state 0x0, keycode 176 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

  Volume up release:
KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x57, subw 0x3200002, time 2732996, (46,41), root:(48,57),
    state 0x0, keycode 176 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

  Mute press:
KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x57, subw 0x3200002, time 2734456, (46,41), root:(48,57),
    state 0x0, keycode 160 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

  Mute release:
KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x57, subw 0x3200002, time 2734456, (46,41), root:(48,57),
    state 0x0, keycode 160 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False


For reference, the Fn+pgup/pgdn volume keys report the same keycode as these 
volume keys, and the Fn+up/down for screen brightness DOES work, but it doesn't 
have symbols, and xev doesn't even recognise Fn+down.
