Fn key inversion on new lenovo

Just got new lenovo X1 carbon.  So far everything is working well, but one 
issue with the keyboard.

Hitting Alt-F2 does not give 'run command'.  Instead, Fn-Alt-F2 does.  In 
fact, inspecting (using emacs), it seems every one of the function keys acts 
as if the Fn key state is inverted.  E.g., without holding Fn, hitting F2 
lowers the volume, which is what is suppose to happen if you hold Fn, and 
emacs reports indicate the same.

Any hints how to fix?  I did not do anything special with the keyboard, 
other than (with kde settings) swapping ctrl-capslock.
