It seems Xfce in jessie does not have support for pulseaudio. So you will need to configure the multimedia keys manually via xfce-settings-manager to move the volume via the pulseaudio command line tools (in package pulseaudio-utils). Use `pactl set-sink-volume <sink> +10%` to raise the volume, and `pactl set-sink-volume <sink> -10%` to lower it. -- Saludos, Felipe Sateler
