Subject: ThinkPad T490: brightness keys stop working after plugging in USB-C 
EarPods

Hi 
On my ThinkPad T490 running OpenBSD 8, the screen brightness keys F5 and F6 
stop working after I plug in wired USB-C Apple EarPods. Sound and microphone 
through the earbuds work fine.
Once it happens, wsconsctl display.brightness stays at the same value no matter 
how often I press F5 or F6, while xbacklight still changes the brightness, so 
the backlight itself is fine. Unplugging the earbuds does not bring the keys 
back, only a reboot does. It has happened twice, on 18 and 20 October.
dmesg shows the EarPods attaching as uaudio0, a ucc0 keyboard on wskbd1 and two 
uhid devices, with no errors. My full dmesg is below.

Regards Stefano
