If I use the [ or ] keys the volume changes as expected.
However, I'd<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br

I first noticed this when I added a NVidia GT 710 card to

I need to figure out how to change the keybindings so I

I tried the edit keys as you suggested, but when I try to press
the button for Volume up on the keyboard. The system intercepts
it and mythtv never see it’s, so Ubuntu seems to have it locked
for it’s use.</div>

It's probably whatever window manager you are using is intercepting
those key presses not allowing MythTV to see them. I use KDE and
that has global shortcuts settings that allow the keys used to be
changed. Maybe you have something similar in your window manager?<br>
