Normally, in Kubuntu, after pressing one of the laptop's volume-control
keys (volume-up, volume-down, or mute), a gray box appears on the screen
listing the current level of the volume. The volume level is also
automatically adjusted in kmix to match.
If I open System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout ->
Xkb Options, and select Enable xkb options, then the effect of these
volume keys will be different the next time that the system is
restarted. The volume keys will still affect the level of the volume
(pressing volume-up still raises the volume, volume-down still lowers
it, and mute still mutes it), but the gray box no longer appears, and
the changes in volume are not reflected in kmix. Instead, the volume
level in kmix can be adjusted independently from the hardware volume
level.
I am running Kubuntu 7.04, but this bug also existed in Kubuntu 6.10. I
am using an IBM X41 Tablet computer, and I have heard from one other
user who experienced the same problem while using a regular IBM X41
laptop.
