multi-media key "mute" no longer recognized

[Toralf Förster]

With kernel 3.1.10 I could mute my system by pressing the appropriate 
multimedia button either at my ThinkPad or at my external keyboard.
With 3.2.1 this doesn't work anymore although the button itself is recognized 
when pressed (checked with xev).

Now I'm wondering where to start to debug ?
