Function sound up/down move a control, but sound does not change. It is
acting on the wrong control. I think it acts on the headphones, not the
master control.
The mute control does mute the sound, but a second press, although it
pops a graphic representation of sound being unmuted, does nothing. I
have to go to the pulse audio control, “output devices” tab, and there
click the unmute icon.
On keyboard configuration panel, I see some “application shortcuts”
defined (default settings):
I ran-out of edit time
If you have the xfce4-mixer icon in the panel
you can do a mouse right-click and choose the kind
of sound to control like pcm, speaker, head phone etc.
It could be the one causing the problem like you said it looks like
it is controlling the headphone, maybe in the xfce4-mixer, control was set to headphone

The mute special key of the keyboard acts on both the front speakers and
headphone, as seen the the xfce4-mixer display.
But unmute only works on the headphone.
I don’t know where to configure where that key has to act. This is a
keyboard definition problem, not a mixer problem.

There is no change whatever I do in the mixer with what happens pressing
the key.

There are no options, no menu where to setup things, nothing.
There is a selector to select the “sound card”, the volume sliders, and
a button labeled “select controls”, which serve to choose which sliders
to display.
And then a button for quit.
Here is a photo susepaste
where do I click to see the mute functions?

First find-out in yast if HDA creative is your default sound card,
if it is, then click the select control in the xfce4-mixer and find-out if you have the master
control and enable it. Right now I saw in your image that you are using the
head phone control.
Second, close the xfce4-mixer and mouse right click the xfce4-mixer icon in the panel,
then click properties and select the master volume control in the mixer track and try your keyboard volume + & -
key if it will work for the master.
If you’re in the xfce4-mixer the mute/unmute option is the speaker icon under the volume slider.
If the above still not going to work, I advice you to go to the xfce forums and have a look at some of the threads
in customizing the keyboard sound volume.

The speakers are connected to the slider labelled “front”.
The master control appears when instead of the creative I select
“Playback”. Under creative there is no master control even if I click on
“select controls”:

Volume + & - work, no problem. It is the mute control that fails.

The problem is that it simultaneously changes two controls on mute,
and one on unmute.
