The pseudo keys
SUMMARY
I have a Dell XPS 13 which has pseudo function keys. All of them work in KDE
except for the volume up / down and mute. When I press them, there is no change
to the volume, whether I have headphones plugged in or not.
If I go into shortcuts and attempt to map the keys to the volume events as
custom shortcuts (on the theory that they are producing odd key event), I get a
message saying that they are already mapped (i.e. so they are producing the
right keyboard events).
I unfortunately can't buy somebody one of these machines to debug with, but
happy to provide any additional logs as needed.
Output of xev when pressing each of the keys is below.
