I have a U300, and am actually the original reporter of this bug.
Apologies if this isn't right,

I ran the command "sudo evtest /dev/input/event4"

Got the following output when moving the volume wheel. I made sure I only moved the wheel one unit. I didn't continue to scroll the wheel around. I'm not quite sure why is repeated 3 times.

Let me know if I've done anything wrong or you need extra information.
