In the X61, The MUTE button always work.  It *changes* the way it works
based on OSI(Linux), though.  It should be the same on the X200s.  That
doesn't mean OSI(Linux) is a bad idea for the X200s, it might be the right
thing to do.

Now, that's new.  Messes up the sound hardware?  I was told by Lenovo
ThinkPad users that MUTE toggled bit 6 of EC register 0x30, like every other
ThinkPad have done for over a decade...
