Teo, with all the links that the penalv-bot had been spewing about he
forget the one that might actually be helpful.  Please have a look
through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting and see if you
can gather some information that would be helpful in nailing this issue
down.  It would certainly be appreciated if you updated your BIOS but
since this is a regression I'm happy to continue triage with you absent
that update.  Take the above wiki page with an eye to giving you helpful
information (such as the reference to the xev command) but not being
gospel.

>From what I understand you only experience this issue temporarily and
haven't found a way to systematically reproduce it.  That's been my
experience as well.  I see you experienced this on trusty which is my
main operating system as well, but I've only experienced the problem
once while booted into my vivid testing environment.  Obviously, I don't
use that so often.

Title:
  [REGRESSION 2014-08] Volume up/down keys, and printScreen key, have
  stopped working

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  All of a sudden, the volume keys from the keyboard have stopped
  working.

  The volume control on the top right corner of the screen does work if
  used with the mouse.

  I have both an external usb keyboard with dedicated volume + and -
  keys, and the builtin laptop keyboard where the volume +/-keys are the
  combination of the Fn key plus the up/down arrows.

  All these used to work up to a few minutes ago. Now none of them works.
  I think they stopped working with the last reboot.
