I'm not familiar with the hotkeys, just a bit with the LEDs that could be physically located on them. Could you reassign to a hotkey expert perhaps?

Hello Hui,
the DKMS file you provided here could not make the LED work.
Steps:
1. Create an entry at /etc/udev/
# Dell platform kernel driver
keyboard:name:Dell WMI hotkeys:
KEYBOARD_
2. Update it with
sudo udevadm hwdb -u
3. Install the DKMS file provided in comment #5
4. reboot and test the mic mute key.

Please test this dkms, let us see if the led problem can be fixed by this dkms.

To change this situation, let the DELL_WMI_

After this change, this quirk can be chained to any existing quirks,
and as a result, it is possible that this quirk is applied to
a non-Dell machine or a Dell machine without mic mute led on it, but
it is still safe since alc_fixup_

And remove the quirk for machine with subsystem id 0x6010 and 0x601f,

Verification failed. It seems we need to fix this problem not only in notify-osd-icons but also in unity-settings-
The steps I performed verification as below:
I Installed 14.04.3 LTS to a lenovo laptop
enabled -trusty-proposed source from Software&Updates
run Software Updater to update all packges
run dpkg --list to check notify-osd-icons, this package is not updated
download the this package from https:/
manually install it
run dpkg --list to verify this package is installed
reboot
test microphone mute, the osd icon is still speaker rather than microphone.
So it looks like we need to upgrade the unity-setting-
