Unmuting the earphone | i3 WM

Support Sound
17

a Quick search led me to this page, where one answer states:

I had this issue on my ThinkPad T450s (Fn + F4 is toggle mic) on Ubuntu 18.04 and adding this line to my i3 config solved it:

bindsym XF86AudioMicMute exec --no-startup-id pactl set-source-mute 1 toggle

So perhaps something similar?

Edit:

I believe I’ve found something that can work, Look at: https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3815/execute-command-when-mod-is-pressed.1.html:

In my i3 config I put:

bindcode 133 exec my_command

Where ‘133’ is the keycode of my Mod key, then I can run my_command each time it’s pressed. So I can update my i3blocks bar by putting:

bindcode 133 exec pkill -SIGRTMIN+1 i3blocks

in the config, then all the blocks with a signal of 1 will be updated.

I believe this could be modified to suit your needs…

Edit 2:
