Problems with front volume buttons on Inspiron 1720

[Joshida]

Hi, i just installed Ubuntu 9.04 and everything works fine, but i found out that the volume keys in front of my laptop instead of controlling the master volume in the HDA(Alsa Mixer) i handles the Master in the Capture - HDA Intel, again my sound works just fine, is just that i can't control it from the buttons in front of the laptop, the other buttons (Play, Foward/Back and Stop) work just fine, is the Sound Up, Sound down and mute keys that are handling the wrong one. Thanks in advance and please let me know if you need any further information.

Hi,
Try going into System/Preferences/Keyboard shortcuts and setting them up in there.
