defeats the default or use of F11 and F12.
I was thinking that F11, F12 could control the iTunes volume slider.

It depends on if you’re talking about *actual* F11/F12 or just the keys that have F11 and F12 printed on them. By default, those keys are volume controls and they only become function keys if you hold down `fn`.

So no, just hitting them will not control iTunes volume, but hitting them **and** `fn` should do it (if you assign F11/F12 to the triggers). This behavior can be reversed in System Preferences, so the keys will act like function keys by default and switch to system volume controls only if you hold `fn`. That would allow you to control iTunes volume just by tapping those keys, but then you have to hold `fn` all the time to play/pause, adjust brightness, etc.

If you connect something with an optical (S/PDIF) cable, the system volume controls are disabled. I wonder if that’s what you’re running into.
