Thinkpad key status LED for mute/mic broken

Some recent updates seem to have broken my LEDs. That is, when I mute/unmute the speaker or the micro using the FN keys, muting and unmuting works, but the current state is no longer reflected by the small LEDs that are part of the key. Switching the LEDs using the /sys interface manually as root works.

It simply worked before. Does anyone have an idea what package handles this and might be broken?

maybe it is this bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207841

also here is the gentoo wiki page about acpi and thinkpad: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ACPI/ThinkPad-special-buttons
