Ubuntu 8.10 64-bit (clean install of release version)
HP Pavilion zv6130us Notebook

When I press the volume up or down buttons on my notebook, the following events occur:
1. The volume indicator appears on the screen. It shows the volume increase/decrease incrementally, then a pause, then it continues to increase/decrease all the way to max/min volume. The actual volume changes accordingly. I am not holding down the button, simply pressing it once.
2. The mouse no longer performs the right-click function and is unable to open menus (including top panel and window menus). I can still left-click on icons to activate them. This problem occurs with both the synaptics touchpad and a USB mouse. Logging out and back in resolves this problem.

I can successfully change volume levels by using the volume icon in the top panel.
