There is no volume control, don't use that. The driver doesn't yet know how to detect such things, and makes a mess. It is possible, however, that the MUTE bit can be read correctly from NVRAM or the EC space (register 0x30). Please manipulate Mute and volume *using the keyboard* only, and tell me if the mute part of "cat /proc/acpi/ibm/volume" works fine... -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
