I have the same problem.  Everything else works. :-)

xmcd could control volume on my old NEC 4x, but the new Toshiba ignores it.
It's just about impossible to keep a list of good working hardware. :-(

Does anyone have an inside contack at Toshiba?  Maybe there is a workaround.
If not, at least they will be able to club somebody!
