From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041020 Epiphany/1.4.4 Description of problem: I don't entirely believe this is a problem with the applet, more with the multimedia key handling through "Keyboard Shortcuts". When I use any keyboard key to adjust the volume, the Master volume immediately shoots to max and stays and the onscreen volume display shows that the sound is turned all the way down (the bar below the speaker icon is completely empty). If I mouse over the volume applet I can adjust the volume correctly up and down. I have tried assigning volume to other keys (to include the up and down arrows) however, I get the same effect. I have tried multiple keyboard configurations, etc... all to no avail. All other multimedia keys work wonderfully, just the volume is the problem. This is crept up just before going to Gnome 2.8 from 2.7.99 (or whatever it was). I also have the XMMS media key plugin installed, but I have uninstalled it and tried with a fresh user (to cut out any potential that settings were mucked with by the XMMS plugin). Thanks Brian Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use a "Keyboard Shortcut" to adjust the sound. 2. 3. Actual Results: Sound adjusts to maximum Expected Results: Sound adjusts resonably; up or down whichever I choose.

This happens for me as well, along with all of the circumstances around it. It was working when I was using FC2, but after the upgrade to FC3, it no longer behaves as expected. My setupd: Sound Blaster Audigy i386 build Logitech Elite keyboard Most recent alsa build via RHN kernel 2.6.9-1.667
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
Closing per lack of response to previous request for information. This bug was originally filed against a much earlier version of Fedora Core, and significant changes have taken place since the last version for which this bug is confirmed. Note that FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy for security fixes only. Please install a still supported version and retest. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version. Otherwise, if this a security issue, please change the product to Fedora Legacy. Thanks, and we are sorry that we did not get to this bug earlier.
