Bug Description

[Impact]
Micmute hotkey on many HP EliteBooks don't work.

[Fix]
Commit b6eb208b29ae ("hwdb: Add EliteBook to use micmute hotkey"), to map AT keyboard's scancode to micmute hotkey.

[Test]
With the one-liner fix, micmute hotkey works on all the EliteBooks I tested.

[Regression Potential]
The hwdb originally only matches a few EliteBook, and fix changes that to match all EliteBook models. So if there's an EliteBook that uses the scancode for other purpose, there will be a regression.
However, the risk is rather slim because HP is confident that all EliteBooks use the same scancode for mic mute hotkey.

[scope]

this is needed for f and earlier.

this is fixed upstream by commit b6eb208b29ae which is included starting in v246, so g and later are already fixed.

Hello Kai-Heng, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/245.4-4ubuntu3.4 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
