Megaboom 3 and keyboard shortcuts












0















Freak Ubuntu occurrence #24798: every time I link my laptop to a Bluetooth Megaboom 3 speaker, it changes the shortcuts of my volume controls. I use a Dell XPS 13, where normally I can mute with F1 and adjust the volume using F2 and F3 directly. Suddenly I have to hold down the fn key. I can reassign the volume controls in the settings but it changes back whenever I connect the speaker.



And the mute button still doesn't work either way,even using the Fn key! With a 10 month old baby who doesn't nap easily, getting to the mute button quickly is a pretty vital feature AFAIC.
