F10, F11, F12 keys don't adjust volume

These function keys don't adjust sound volume. F11 brings up the desktop, F10 and F12 just beep.. 24" Imac, just upgraded to Monterey. The fn keys used to work!

This did not work for me. What did work is turning my wireless apple keyboard off and then back on.

Uncheck "Use F1, F2, etc.…" in System Preferences > Keyboard.

Thanks. While this did not get the volume keys on my Magic Keyboard working, it did give me an idea. I had to forget the keyboard in my bluetooth settings, then add it back onto my BT devices, which fixed the problem.
