Title:
  Altec Lansing speakers remote control not working

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This has been  ongoing since 2010 ... I initially thought that it was
  a hardware (Altec-Lansing speakers and/or Altec-Lansing remote
  control) issue, but noting the timing of linux header updates (remote
  intermittently working: range ~ 20 - minute - a couple of weeks
  working; prolonged periods - up to 6+ months NOT working), I believe
  it is  linux (Ubuntu) problem.

  Request received: Wireless remote not workling (VS 4221 speakers)
  (ticket #1630)

  Hi - Your request (#1630) has been received, and is being reviewed by
  our support staff.

  ----------------------------------------------

  Hello: I have the VS 4221 speakers and two of the wireless remotes;
  neither of the remotes works, even with new button batteries.  I
  cannot change the treble/bass, etc. Restarting my computer has no
  effect, nor doe unplugging the speakers (electrical outlet), then
  plugging them back in again.

  Hi: I purchased these speakers (VS4221) in Nov. 2009.  This week, the
  remote suddenly stopped working; I thought it was the battery, but a
  fresh (new) battery did nothing: the remote still fails to work, at
  all.  I cannot use the standby function,or more importantly adjust
  bass / treble.

  Please advise.  Thanks, Victoria
