Sorry, missed the questions in #19. This is a fresh install on a brand-new laptop, the bug has been present since the initial install and has persisted with each kernel upgrade since then.

Using the keyboard volume control hotkeys in Unity shows the overlay and a decrease/increase in the volume indicator, but the volume remains at its maximum. The mute hotkey works fine. Same in e.g. alsamixer, I can move the Master channel volume to anything between 0 and 100 but the volume remains constantly at maximum unless I mute the channel. Individual applications with their own volume controls work fine. Plugging in a USB headset and adjusting the volume levels for that device works fine. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.3-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: barryprice 4775 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=a86ccfbe-7a2c-4a9d-8897-8c78f45e851d InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-11-08 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.10 "Yakkety Yak" - Release amd64 (20161012.2) MachineType: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
