Something will probably change with the behaviour (visibley, or otherwise) in the next version of Ubuntu.
For Dapper/6.06, we currently have a situation where when pressing the VolumeUp key, the volume increases; and if you press the VolumeDown key, the volume decreases. For the most-part, that makes this a fairly minor issue, or bug; even if we have to press those keys more than otherwise. -- thinkpad: volume button weighting https://launchpad.net/bugs/39098 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
