Default Dome light button stuck in 2013 captiva

Any tips on fixing it? I don't know why it's stuck. Got it back from mechanic and he turned off the dome lights and now it's just pushed in. Pretty sure he smokes in my car but I don't think it would've been enough to get in the light and make the button that stuck. The other switches work fine. I could always remove the whole thing then fix the button from the back but I don't see a video on how to do that. Looking at replacements, I see what gets pulled out but prying things out makes me nervous so I like to be sure before I do it. I've had sticky (not stuck) buttons before and unsure if spraying some rubbing alcohol would maybe work? It's annoying me.

I have the same issue: the driver-side dome light button is stuck in and won't come out. I have tried a few things, and it stuck. Just adding this to the list of other little items that go wrong with this car.
