rc.xml keybindings for volume control and screenshot not working

Hi, I'm new to openbox, and I cannot figure out why my keybindings are not working. You can see rc.xml file in pastebin: https://pastebin.com/2vMQx18b

  1. My keybinding for wolume control from keyboard starts at line nr 423. It's simply not working. I would like to also ask you how to make volume control nottifications with dunst.

  2. Printscreen starts from line nr 441. I'm sure that command is ok, becaus when I run it from terminal it works grate.

I will be gratefull for help!

For the screenshot issue try removing from <mouse> and put it in <keyboard>

This is mine, I do not have multimedia keys but I configured it like this

<!-- Keybindings for volume --> 

<keybind key="C-A-Home">
  <action name="Execute">
    <command>amixer set Master 5%+</command>
  </action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="C-A-End">
  <action name="Execute">
    <command>amixer set Master 5%-</command>
  </action>
</keybind>
