    'Rotate' the Volume - Intuitive?

    You might prefer to use the volume button with your right hand. Your left hand might be occupied with an "appropriate drink" while in the zone with your music. I like the idea. The more convenient choices the better.

    Solved Microsoft Surface Pro 3 Type Cover Trackpad Quit Working

    Agree with the advice given above There is one more "Keyboards" entry in Device Manager. You can disable the entrees then re-enable. Of course I am assuming you disconnected and reconnected the keyboard :)
