Mumble install & configuration :

sudo apt install mumble .

Config : Do mind that mumble starts up and puts you in the appropriate channel of the LAC free server channel the moment you choose a mission to play (that's the start page of the chosen mission, you don't need to start the mission yet) On that mission page you can change the team you want to play with ; red or blue, the realm you play it in (best for now to leave it on 1 because it's the realm that has all the missions fully working) To change the team, click on the "Blue" (or Red) team button, mentioned in the upper left part of the start page . DO NOT forget to click on "Update" to make the changes in the game and in mumble .

Once mumble is running in the LAC server and you are in the chosen mission and team, you need to configure the Mumble connection : click on Configure, then choose settings and click on shortcuts .

On that screen one has to add 4 function keys, being F1 talk to your team (Blue or Red), F2 to talk to all players in that mission (Red AND Blue), F3 for mumble volume down 10 % and F4 mumble volume up 10% .

Follow these steps : Click the ADD button, then click on the "unassigned" field under Title "Function" and choose Push to talk, then click under "Shortcut" and press the F1 key . Click the ADD button, then click on the "unassigned" field under Title "Function" and choose Whisper/Shout, then click under "Shortcut" and press the F2 key . under the Data column , then click on the 3 dots on the right of "Empty" and change in the Whisper Target screen like this : on top, click on Shout to Channel, and at the bottom click on shout to subchannels . For F3 : click on Add, choose "Volume down 10%" in stead of unassigned on click under Shortcut and press the F3 key . For F4 : click on Add, choose "Volume up 10%" in stead of unassigned on click under Shortcut and press the F4 key .

And that's it for mumble, but if your connection is bad or not working at all, click on configure and then on "Audio Wizard..." and follow through all steps .

Hi Hank! It's nice to see you here. Thanks for helping people learn how to configure the four mumble "hot keys" that work best for LAC.

Here is a brief YouTube video clip illustrating the process as you described it:
