That's a desktop issue. You can try the following first (from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting):
for audio volume control hotkeys, gnome-sound-properties may be misconfigured. You can either examine with gconf-editor '/desktop/gnome/sound' or do 'gconftool --recursive-list /desktop/gnome/sound' to get the current settings; the particular configuration items are 'default_mixer_tracks' and 'default_mixer_device'. If everything looks good there then we probably need a new task, I'm just not sure against what package. Maybe gnome-sound-properties? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/805218 Title: keyboard buttons for changing volume level stops working on asus eeepc 1005ha To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/805218/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
