[Bug 1411867] [NEW] [USB-Audio - Plantronics .Audio 478 USB, recording] Microphone Stops Working After Pressing Hardware Mute

 

Public bug reported:

On ubuntu, when the hardware "mute" button is pressed, the headset
microphone becomes muted, but the mute indicator light fails to light
up. On pressing the mute button again to hardware unmute the mic, the
mic is never unmuted. I have to physically unplug and replug the
microphone to unmute the mic.

On OS X, when the hardware mute button is pressed, the mic is muted and
a red mute indicator light lights up. When I press the button again, the
light goes away and the mic is unmuted.


I believe the issue is related to the USB HID (for volume up, volume down, and call accept) not being properly interfaced with.
