--- Comment #13 from Hans de Goede (jwrdegoede@fedoraproject.org) ---
Good to hear that the hotkeys work now.

As for the mic/speaker mute LEDs, those are tricky. They can be either attached
to the embedded-controller and then we would need support to register them
under /sys/class/leds with their default triggers setup correctly, after which
the kernel's HDA code shoould control them for us.

Or they may be directly connected to some GPIOs on the HDA part of the main SoC
or on the codec.

And the Fn-lock LED typically just works automatically (controller by the EC)
if you toggle the Fn-lock by pressing Fn + escape?  Although sometimes it too
needs to be controller in software.

Figuring out the LEDs really requires someone with significant hw-enablement
experience to actually have the laptop in their hands and then they will
hopefully be able to figure things out.

I have submitted the fixes for the hotkeys upstream here:
