Rob Parnell, does this still affect you in a supported release of
Ubuntu?
If so, could you please run the following command once from a terminal by
ensuring you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information:
apport-collect -p xorg 1006156
** Package changed: archlinux => xorg (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Low
** Tags removed: input
** Tags added: precise
** Description changed:
When I press the mute button on my USB headset (Plantronics .Audio 626
DSP), it steals the "mouse focus" and holds onto it until I press the
mute button again.
Expected:
- microphone is muted
- nothing else happens
Actual:
- microphone is muted
- mouse can still move but is unresponsive to clicks
- pressing the keyboard doesn't do anything (except for Ctrl+Alt+F1 which
does work and switch to virtual console)
I'm not sure this is filed against the right package, please reassign if
it's not. Also, I'm happy to provide more info, but I wasn't sure what I
could provide (even after reading
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting/).
This is on a fully up-to-date Precise 12.04 system.
+
+ WORKAROUND: 1. Put this in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-plantronics.rules:
+ ACTION!="add|change", GOTO="xorg_plantronics_end"
+ KERNEL!="event*", GOTO="xorg_plantronics_end"
+ ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="047f", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="c006", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEY}="1"
+ ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="047f", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="c006", RUN+="keymap $name
0xc00e9 volumeup 0xc00ea volumedown 0xb002f micmute"
+ LABEL="xorg_plantronics_end"
+
+ 2. Reload udev:
+ sudo udevadm control --reload
+
+ 3. Unplug the headset and plug it back in
