Thank you for the bug report. We regularly backport fixes of systemd for
bugs affecting a broad set of users, but this particular problem affect
only users of this specific laptop model.

Could you please report the problem at systemd upstream to automatically
get Ubuntu fixed, too, when packaging the first fixed upstream release?

There is already a similar problem reported against an other HP EliteBook model:

Title:
  HP Elitebook 840 G1 - 19.10 - Microphone mute key does not work

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just installed Ubuntu 19.10 on my HP Elitebook 840 G1. Switching
  from Windows to Ubuntu for personal use.

  The mic does not enable/disable with FN+F8 combo and the light is
  constantly on.

  I found the following solution to my problem. However, I do not know how to 
implement it in Ubuntu 19.10 (new to Ubuntu and generally not as techinical).
  
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HP_EliteBook_840_G1#Enable_the_microphone_muting_key

  1. Would greatly appreciate if someone could point me to step by step 
instructions to install the code from the link above. I can report back if this 
resolve the issue.
  2. Also, is there a way to incorporate a fix for this issue with HP laptops 
in Ubuntu going forward? When I was searching for a fix, I found this to be a 
widespread issue with various HP laptops and Ubuntu dating back a couple years.

  Many thanks.
