Need to reboot. Simply restarting awesome isn’t enough!
Say I want to set the ‘Function-F8’ key to mean mute speakers. In:
~/.config/awesome/rc.lua add an entry like:
awful.util.table.join(
---...
awful.key({ modkey, }, "F8",
function ()
awful.util.spawn_with_shell("amixer -q set Master mute")
end),
