Cay, that's interesting. Have you put this in as a separate bug report?

[Bug 303921] Re: Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button.
On my Thinkpad T500 with an external Logitech wave keyboard, hitting the mute button merely toggles a pretty red x on the screen without affecting the actual sound. Similarly, selecting mute in the volume control applet has no effect. The mute button on the laptop works as it should.

[Bug 303921] Re: Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button.
This may be related to Bug #9441. I find that if I turn off Locate Pointer (under System - Preferences - Mouse), then the problem goes away. But when I turn Locate Pointer back on, then the problem reappears. Can the other people with this problem see if Locate Pointer has anything to do with it? -- Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 303921] Re: Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button.
Turning off Locate Pointer indeed solves my problem. It also restores functionality to my Play/Pause, Rewind and Forward keyboard shortcuts, which didn't work anymore either, just as Mute didn't. This must be a very weird bug...

This affects me too on my desktop PC. I have a wireless keyboard with volume and mute buttons on it. The volume buttons work fine but the mute button does not work. I too have tried whether the key code in the Keyboard Shortcuts program was wrong, but pressing the mute button there returns the same code (XF86AudioMute) as was there before. -- Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have an HP 2617us laptop and although I can still mute from the laptop's button the light on the button does not change any more.

I just remembered that my laptop also has volume-control keys on Fn- PageUp (XF86RaiseVolume), Fn-PageDn (XF86LowerVolume), and Fn-End (XF86AudioMute).

Confirmed due to duplicate.

[Bug 303921] Re: Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: alsa-utils I run Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron E1505. This comes with some volume control buttons on the front side of the keyboard. When I was running Hardy, the mute button, volume-up button, and volume-down buttons worked. Now that I upgraded to Intrepid, the mute button no longer works, although the volume-up and volume-down buttons are still fine. Note that I can still mute and unmute through all of the usual GUI interfaces. I believe that the interface between these buttons and GNOME is handled through the Keyboard Shortcuts, which I find under System - - Preferences. This describe the mute button as XF86AudioMute, which may + Preferences. This describes the mute button as XF86AudioMute, which may or may not be what it called the mute button under Hardy. (The volume- down and volume-up buttons, which work, are called XF86LowerVolume and XF86RaiseVolume.) If I set a new Keyboard Shortcut by pressing the mute button, it returns XF86AudioMute again, but the button still doesn't work. ** Tags added: regression -- Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 303921] Re: Intrepid broke my laptop's mute button.
I have a similar problem (maybe this has to do with it): I used my volume-up and volume-down to lower or higher the volume. And in Hardy I used shift-volumeup and shift-volumedown to go to the next/previous track. The combinations don't work in Intrepid any more.
