Bug#337788: kmix volume splash screen stuck on Dell inspiron 8500
I have the same problem. It occours when I have the DVD drive in on my
inspiron 600m. I am using Gentoo for the OS.
The problem is with Milo. You can stop it in the KDE control panel,
under services. This will fix the problem, but I am not sure what is
causing Milo (Special key detection) to freak out, and think you are
holding the volume knob down. I hope this helps, cause I would really
like to be able to use special keys.
