[Bug 38822] Volume key controls "Phone Out" NOT Volume.

[Trae McCombs]

Public bug reported:

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Needs Info


Description:
Hello,

I have recently (a few hours ago) purchased the Microsoft Wireless Laser
Desktop 6000 Keyboard / Mouse combo.

I was actually excited when I was able to configure the mail key to
launch firefox + gmail.com.

The sound/volume keys seem to operate "Phone out" instead of Volume.  I
ascertained this by installing and running aumix.

heck, I didn't even know you could use these special keys under Linux at
all.  If they could be made to work, I could see how it'd be very
useful.

Thanks in advance.
