If anyone's wondering why the vol up and down aren't working for them, just use sudo amixer in place of amixer

for people that use pamixer instead of amixer

 static const char *upvol[]   = { "pamixer", "--increase", "3", NULL };
 static const char *downvol[] = { "pamixer", "--decrease", "3", NULL };
 static const char *mutevol[] = { "pamixer", "-t",              NULL };
