I can confirm this problem; I thought that this was no longer an issue,
but it turns out the reason it wasn't manifesting on my T60 was because
I had disabled the hotkey-setup init script for testing purposes. :/
Ideally (IMHO), we would be letting userspace handle the mixer entirely,
so that the hotkeys, the GNOME mixer, etc. are all interoperating; but I
haven't figured out how to accomplish this yet, need to talk to the
thinkpad_acpi maintainer about this. In the meantime, we can certainly
change hotkey-setup to not propagate these keys to userspace, as a
lesser evil.
** Package changed: acpi-support (Ubuntu) => hotkey-setup (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: hotkey-setup (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Triaged
