Package: cinnamon Version: 2.6.13-1 Severity: normal The "play/pause" key on my keyboard sends the "AudioPlay" key when using X. This is detected when I configure hotkey bindings in the Cinnamon control panel.
However, my music players don't play/pause their music when I press this button. If I change the keybinding to Ctrl+AudioPlay (or shift, or any other modifier or combination of modifiers), it works as expected: music starts and stops on the press of the "Play/Pause" button. Strangely, the "volume" keys (volume up, volume down, mute) are not affected. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages cinnamon depends on: ii caribou 0.4.18.1-1 ii cinnamon-common 2.6.13-1 ii cinnamon-control-center 2.6.0-2 ii cinnamon-desktop-data 2.6.5-1 ii cinnamon-screensaver 2.6.4-2 ii cinnamon-session 2.6.3-2 ii cinnamon-settings-daemon 2.6.3-2 ii cjs 2.6.2-1 ii cups-pk-helper 0.2.5-2+b1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.24.0-2 ii gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 0.6.40-3 ii gir1.2-caribou-1.0 0.4.18.1-1 ii gir1.2-clutter-1.0 1.24.0-1 ii gir1.2-cmenu-3.0 2.6.0-2 ii gir1.2-cogl-1.0 1.22.0-1 ii gir1.2-gconf-2.0 3.2.6-3 ii gir1.2-gdkpixbuf-2.0 2.32.0-1 ii gir1.2-gkbd-3.0 3.6.0-1 ii gir1.2-glib-2.0 1.44.0-1+b2 ii gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0 3.16.2-2 ii gir1.2-gtk-3.0 3.16.6-1 ii gir1.2-gtkclutter-1.0 1.6.4-1 ii gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-3.0 2.4.9-2+b1 ii gir1.2-keybinder-3.0 0.3.0-1 ii gir1.2-meta-muffin-0.0 2.6.1-3 ii gir1.2-networkmanager-1.0 1.0.6-1 ii gir1.2-notify-0.7 0.7.6-2 ii gir1.2-pango-1.0 1.38.0-3 ii gir1.2-polkit-1.0 0.105-12 ii gir1.2-soup-2.4 2.52.0-1 ii gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0 0.99.3-1+b2 ii gir1.2-webkit-3.0 2.4.9-2+b1 ii gkbd-capplet 3.6.0-1 ii gnome-backgrounds 3.16.0-1 ii gnome-icon-theme-symbolic 3.12.0-1 ii gnome-themes-standard 3.18.0-1 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.18.0-1 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.18.0-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.18.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-22 ii libcairo2 1.14.2-2 ii libcinnamon-menu-3-0 2.6.0-2 ii libcjs0 2.6.2-1 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.24.0-1 ii libcogl-pango20 1.22.0-1 ii libcogl-path20 1.22.0-1 ii libcogl20 1.22.0-1 ii libcroco3 0.6.8-3+b1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.32.0-1 ii libgirepository-1.0-1 1.44.0-1+b2 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 10.6.8-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.46.0-2 ii libglib2.0-bin 2.46.0-2 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.6.0-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.16.6-1 ii libjs-jquery 1.11.3+dfsg-4 ii libmozjs-24-0 24.2.0-3 ii libmuffin0 2.6.1-3 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.38.0-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.38.0-3 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 7.0-1 ii libpulse0 7.0-1 ii libstartup-notification0 0.12-4 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.3-1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.1-2+b2 ii libxml2 2.9.2+zdfsg1-4 ii mesa-utils 8.2.0-1 ii nemo 2.6.7-1 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.105-2 ii python 2.7.9-1 ii python-dbus 1.2.0-2+b4 ii python-gconf 2.28.1+dfsg-1.1 ii python-gi-cairo 3.18.0-1 ii python-imaging 2.9.0-1 ii python-lxml 3.4.4-1+b1 ii python-pam 0.4.2-13.2 ii python-pexpect 3.2-1 ii python-pyinotify 0.9.5-1 ii python3 3.4.3-6 pn python:any <none> Versions of packages cinnamon recommends: ii cinnamon-l10n 2.6.3-1 ii gir1.2-gnomebluetooth-1.0 3.18.0-1 ii gir1.2-nmgtk-1.0 1.0.6-2 ii gksu 2.0.2-9 ii gnome-terminal [x-terminal-emulator] 3.18.0-1 ii network-manager-gnome 1.0.6-2 ii xterm [x-terminal-emulator] 320-1 Versions of packages cinnamon suggests: pn python-opencv <none> -- no debconf information
