One of my favorite things about keyboards in the past few decades (and I really
like keyboards) are media keys. Play, pause, mute... and most important, the
raise and lower volume keys. Tying these functions to my keyboard make it simple

Every piece of hardware I have seems to have its own built-in sound device.
Thunderbolt docks, USB3 hubs... even HDMI and display port carry sound. On my
laptop, I only want to use a few of them - but every time I connect another
device, it becomes the default sound card.
