If you check your hardware device manager, do you see something in there that says ACPI MAT0019? Possibly in unknown devices?
If you do, than your issue is with whatever recent update you did which didn't include the hotkeys driver. Asus had a similar problem with this at one point. I think Panasonic has been dealing with this issue for years, too. You'll have to manually install them. They should be easy to find out there through Google.
