Comment 5 for bug 1876503

Hello Chris.

After all this time i found that when this happens, i can "solve" it pressing the same combination of keys that caused it.
It happens to me when i use Function(Fn) key plus the key that makes volume up (+vol), makes it go down (-vol) or sometimes when i press the mute key.(mute)

For example, if i was lowing the sound and the problem happens, my keyboard stops responding and my volume goes to 0%, even if i was in ,lets say 70%, and i tried to go to 67%(i need to press the key only one time to make that).

If the keyboard becomes "locked", i need to press again Fn+(-vol) key several times to "recover" the keybaord again, and after that i can use it normally.

The same happens sometimes with mute key and (+vol) key, is a bit strange thing to explain for me.

I don't know what could makes this happen, since it happened to me in 18.04 an 20.04 too.

I managed myself to press again the 2 keys that i pressed before the keyboard becomes locked, so it is just an annoying thing, not a big error as you have said.

About the other combinations of keys, when this happens i only can press the key combination that triggered the "keyboard lock", and other keys does not work. The mouse, at the contrary, works perfectly and that is why i managed myself to discover that log off and log in again solves my problem the 1st time i discovered it.

I found in the !shourcut keys" that these actions are related to this commands:

XF86AudioMute
XF86AudioRaiseVolume
XF86AudioLowerVolume

Maybe there is something wrong with those command and my hardware,but i don't have idea about that.

Thanks for see the topic and take a moment to answer me.
