Subject: hid.c - need enable_5_button_array=1 for hardware volume buttons
Date: Fri, 27 Jun 2025 10:45:39 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <OTkZ4I6--F-9@tuta.io> (raw)

Hi,
I'm running Arch Linux on my HP ProBook x360 440 G1 but I couldn't get the hardware volume keys to work, though they worked in kernel versions older than 5.5. I found that after some digging, sudo modprobe intel_hid enable_5_button_array=1 seemed to work. The documentation at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/platform/x86/intel/hid.c said to contact this email.

I think this affects a lot more HP laptops, I found a forum post on Fedora forum https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/hardware-volume-buttons-not-responding-on-hp-laptop/97611 that said that this affected them. Maybe we need to apply the fix to every HP laptop that has volume controls? Thoughts?

Cheers,
By Matrix :)
