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: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13463 ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Bug watch added: github.com/systemd/systemd/issues #13463 https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13463 ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848862 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.
