Title:
  amixer 'mute toggle shortcut' problem (can mute but not unmute)

Status in “alsa-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Openbox shortcut configuration file on ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-
  rc.xml triggers to the following command to be executed:

  $ amixer -q sset Master toggle

  This problem is language related/dependent. This works fine on a pure
  english Lubuntu installation (toggle behavior). I installed Portuguese
  language package, on this very same machine, and now shortcut can
  mute, but I need to use the volume control on "tray" to unmute!

  I can solve the issue by running this command:

  $ amixer -q sset Master toggle && amixer -q sset Speaker unmute &&
  amixer -q sset Headphone unmute

  A good workaround is edit  ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml and
  set/reset this config.:

      <keybind key="XF86AudioMute">
        <action name="Execute">
          <command>amixer -q sset Master toggle</command>
        </action>
       <action name="Execute">
  	<command>amixer -q sset Speaker unmute</command>
       </action>
      <action name="Execute">
  	<command>amixer  -q sset Headphone unmute</command>
        </action>
      </keybind>
