Volume keyboard shortcuts are being reset after reboot

[Roman Vorobets]

After an upgrade to Ubuntu Karmic on my Asus Eee PC1000, the keyboard shortcuts for volume mute, volume up and down are reset (or not saved) after rebooting the system. I have to set them manually each time after the restart, which is quite frustrating.
I expect the shortcuts not to be reset.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage , so I have classified this bug as a bug in linux package.

Hi Roman,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 495186

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

I confirm this problem exists on the latest Lucid Lynx build on my Sony Vaio VGN (using apple aluminium keyboard):

- By setting "switch to workspace on the left/right" to XF86KbdBrightnessDown/Up it works just as long as the system isn't restarted.
- After restart the default Ctrl+Alt+Left/right Arrow behaviour is present even though in the keyboard shortcuts the XF86KbdBrightnessDown/Up is still present.
- I have to change the values to something else and back to get it back working.

[Roman Vorobets (roman-vorobets)]

The problem still persists for me after upgrading to 10.04.
Note the symptoms are different from neferty: only Volume Up/Down/Mute shortcuts are reset and they show up as disabled in configuration window.

I've installed and tested upstream kernel, linux-image-2.6.34-020634rc6-generic. This does not fix the issue.
