I don't know if this is a configuration issue or a hardware issue, but I have a Kinesis Advantage USB keyboard and for some reason the F3-F5 keys aren't responding as they used to. They don't respond to anything and, when I tried using F5 on Emacs, it said <XF86AudioNext> is undefined, so I guess it's a weird mapping problem.

Any idea how I could remap them to the original meaning?

You have the Multimedia Group features enabled (=n). To turn off, activate the master settings:

To change a setting, pressing and hold the “=” key in the number row (above the Tab key) on your Advantage keyboard, then tap the appropriate second key. To turn off all settings in a group, activate one of the master settings (=m, =p, or =w).

Go to the Keyboard Shortcuts section of your desktop environment configuration and map them.
