Additional Info:
I just found out another detail quite by accident.
My system is set up to use the “fn” key to make the F buttons behave as
an f button (F1-12). Meaning by default a press will trigger the volume
up/down, etc.
So when the audio keys conk out… my other f key functions (brightness,
etc) still work. BUT, if I hold “alt”, and press my audio keys - they
work!
Now knowing this pattern, - I went through my F keys… and tested what
worked (brightness, audio, mute, search)
F1 (mute) - “F1” works with the “fn” key, and the mute only works when also
pressing “alt”
F2 (vol down) - “F2” works with the “fn” key, and the vol down only works
when also pressing “alt”
F3 (vol up) - “F3” works with the “fn” key, and the vol up only works when
also pressing “alt”
F4 (disable mic) - Works as expected.
F5 (bright down) - Works as expected.
F6 (bright up) - Works as expected.
F7 (projector) - Untested.
F8 (airplane mode) - Works as expected.
F9 (tools) - Does not work in any capacity
F10 (Search) - “F10” works with the “fn” key, and the search only works
when also pressing “alt”
F11 (launchA) - Works as expected.
F12 (open file browser) - Works as expected.
Also filed an upstream bug.
