** Description changed:

  with certain audio hardware (those where alsamixer shows separate
  "headphone" and "speaker" channels) pressing of the mute button on
  laptop keyboards causes mute of all three channels: master, headphone
  and speaker. unfortunately, pressing the button again to unmute (or
  deselecting mute in the xfce audio mixer panel applet) unmutes only the
  master channel, leaving headphone and speaker muted. there is no other
  way than opening alsamixer in a terminal (or open mixer controls from
  the applet) and manually clicking the two remaining channels to unmute.
  
  Update: another workaround when using xfce4-mixer (or Xfce Audio Mixer
  in panel): Choose Playback:...(PulseAudio Mixer) instead of (Alsa mixer)
- as sounf card in properties.
+ as sound card in properties.
