Edit your .lircrc. Look for a block like
begin
prog = irxevent
button = volume_down
config = Key Prior CurrentWindow
end
The "volume_down" and "Prior" might be not exactly those values... You
should just change the config to send a different key. F10 is volume
down, F11 is volume up, and F9 is mute. So:
config = Key F10 CurrentWindow
If there isn't a "repeat = <N>" line in the vol up/down blocks, you might
want to add one. I have "repeat = 1," but that may depend on your remote.

irw. That will tell you which string to look for in the "button =" line
if it's not "volume_down."
