    I have a small problem with my Hot Keys (the keys at the top that can open the Internet or select the next track).

    My problem is that the light is always on, and the keys do not work.

    I don't know when it started, or why, but I have looked and none of the Hot Keys are pushed in, and it doesn't open anything.

    The light is simply just on all the time, even after reboots, and I can't use the Hot Keys.

    Anyone have a suggestion on what I should do?
