Description raphael.gingerlily 2025-07-30 14:01:20 UTC
Hello everyone! I am not a techie, or expert and just a newbie so I sincerely apologize if I sound little bit dumb. And I also sorry for my bad English. I already found a solution to this bug, but I want to report it so it won't happened on the future
SUMMARY
When pressing mute or decrease volume button, it repeatedly pressed but when other keys pressed those won't repeatedly pressed anymore. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use redmibook 15 laptop device
2. Press mute and decrease volume button


EXPECTED RESULT
1. It will repeatedly pressed or register an input for decrease volume or mute button, even though I am not.

SOLUTION
1.Run `sudo nano /etc/udev/hwdb.d/90-redmibook-keyboard.hwdb` to create a file
2.Copy paste the following `# Fix for volume keys on RedmiBook 15 (TIMI)
evdev:atkbd:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:svnTIMI:pnRedmiBook15:pvr*
 KEYBOARD_KEY_a0=!mute
 KEYBOARD_KEY_ae=!volumedown
 KEYBOARD_KEY_b0=!volumeup`
3.Run `
sudo systemd-hwdb update
sudo udevadm trigger`
That's it. However it's weird it's an issue in the first place. And I want it to be fixed so no further error like this

Thank you for your bug report!

Debian advises users to not submit bugs upstream (https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting), as this version of the KDE software no longer receives updates or maintenance from KDE, and so it's possible that the bug exists only in Debian at this point.
Could you report the bug to Debian using the report bug utility (https://packages.debian.org/stable/utils/reportbug)? If necessary, the maintainer of the package will forward the bug upstream.

Thanks for understanding!

Hello, sorry for late replies. As I already mentioned, this is not debian specific. I have another computer that use Kubuntu and EndeavourOS, it's have same exact problem even though use latest KDE.

If you can reproduce this with the latest version of Plasma, 6.4.3 or later, please add that system's information from kinfo in this report. Thanks.
