Readers,
In gnome, sound is enabled and can be adjusted via the keyboard 
function
keys (e.g. fn + ^). This doesn't work in xfce. What is the cause in 
this
different behaviour and any ideas how to solve please?
Next time read the docs:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xfce#Keyboard_Volume_Buttons
After following the instructions, received an error dialogue window:

"Failed to launch shortcut "XF86AudioRaiseVolume"
Failed to execute child process "amixer" (No such file or directory)"

The sound is enabled when starting the 'audio mixer' (alsamixer) 
graphical tool and adjusting sound using the mouse.
