I got the media keys working on amarok also, but not exactly by the same way.
I deleted every shortcut from kcontrol, but that didn't help. Then I deleted every media key from Gnome Shortcuts Applet. After that the "Next" and "Prev" keys started working, but not the "Play/Pause". I then played around with the amarok shortcuts dialog, changing the media keys to different places etc., and then eventually got everything working normally. After that, I could restore the KDE shortcut settings and everything still worked. But when changing back the Gnome ones, sometimes the next/prev keys stopped working. Then I had again to mess around the amarok and gnome settings, setting, unsetting and changing the media key shortcuts... Now I have the media keys working in amarok and in the gnome settings. But I have not the slightest idea how to do that exactly, except for keep changing them in amarok and gnome until it works. -- Multimedia keys not working in Feisty (no need to confirm behavior anymore) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87299 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
