["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Jack Fifield, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [HP Compaq nc6400 Notebook PC] The "mute volume" multimedia key always
  has it's light on

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After logging in to my account on Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal the mute button will always have it's light on, as if to say that the volume is in the "mute" mode. When starting to play a sound or a song, the light will go off and play the song/ sound but will immediately come back on after the sound/ music has stopped. This bug was not in Ubuntu 10.10. I'm on an HP nc6400 laptop.
  Pressing mute on and off will put the light out for less than a second before it comes back on again. The volume is unaffected by the light, so it only appears to be the light at fault. Sometimes after playing music/ a sound for a while the light seems to get the idea and stay off, but not always.

  Also, I'm a bit of a linux noob.
