Though on my X301 while it doesn't mute the volume you do see the mute light turn on. Proc interface does show it muted. Then unmute and the light turns off.

So linux picks it up and Mutes the alsa mixer or pulse audio mixer (who will then mute alsa mixer). > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
