I can confirm this problem on my Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop, kubuntu
intrepid x64.

I will focus on the stop key since all the others I have had a certain
degree of success with.

My stop key is by default the "XF86AudioLowerVolume" and it does lower
the volume (which is incredibly annoying because it alters the "front"
channel and the actual audio buttons, which I have managed to get
working, are linked to PCM so I have to open kmix to increase the volume
of "front").

The prev, play and next buttons I managed to get working in Amarok after
a lot of playing around. The stop key seems to be hijacked by some other
program before it gets to amarok. It shows an OSD but not the same one
as is shown by the actual volume keys (which I assume is generated by
kmix). For this reason I figure that there must be some other program
that can change volume and it is grabbing that input.

xev says that the stop key is number 174. It used to have the keysym
"XF86AudioLowerVolume" as I said but I changed that to "XF86AudioStop".
I've mucked around with xbindkeys, xmodmap, xev, showkeys, dumpkeys,
loadkeys, I installed an old version of kmilo, I've installed keytouch
but nothing is fixing this.

Does anyone know if anyone is working on this problem?
