I wouldn't consider it closed, since the volume control for the media keys was controlling different hardware from the sound output and volume applet in the system tray. I was able to work around the problem by disabling the hardware from the sound preferences, but that doesn't fix the underlying problem that it wasn't controlling the correct hardware when it had the choice. I have confirmed that the problem still exists by re-enabling my video card's HDMI sound hardware and rebooting.<br>

Subject: gnome-control-center: Multimedia volume control keys don't work<br>
Date: Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:59:20 -0800<br>
Package: gnome-control-center<br>
Version: 1:2.28.1-1<br>
Severity: normal<br>
<br>
Whenever I try to adjust the volume via the multimedia volume keys, a popup dia<br>
log shows the volume changing, but the change isn't reflected in the volume app<br>
let, sound preferences, or sound coming out of the speakers. It is as if it's e<br>
diting a completely different sound channel. I'm using pulseaudio.<br>

Does it work with if you launch gnome-volume-control.gstreamer by hand?<br>
Same question for gnome-volume-control.pulse.<br>
<br>

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]<br>
I launched those utilities manually and played around with the different<br>
audio channels in the gstreamer utility, and I seem to have found the<br>
problem. I technically have 2 audio out devices: the sound system on my<br>
motherboard and the HDMI output for my video card. It's using my<br>
motherboard's sound for output, and both the volume applet and pulse volume<br>
control utility adjust that output channel, but for some reason the media<br>
keys were controlling the volume of my video card's HDMI output. From<br>
gnome-volume-control.pulse I was able to disable my video card's HDMI output<br>
and the media keys now effect the correct output channel.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the help,<br>
Aaron<br>
