Perhaps this is simply a hw defect, have you seen the button
working under Windows? Maybe at some point some liquid
got inside the keyboard around that button?

The main keyboard buttons are typically membrane style buttons.

But extra media keys might be more remote control style, where
there are not rubber domes beneath hard plastic keys, but the
keys themselves are rubber, with some carbon conductor on
the bottom and they directly connect 2 copper pads on the PCB.

These remote style buttons are quite sensitive to dirt getting
underneath (just like the buttons in a typical TV remote).

Assuming you can get things disassembled easily you may want
to try and clean things.

Regards,

Hans
