The problem is that an incorrect string is set in dconf key: Original (working) value: ~$ gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-up 'XF86AudioRaiseVolume'
After running "unity-control-center keyboard", and setting the shortcut for volume-up key: ~$ gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-up 'AudioRaiseVolume' The new value misses the "XF86" part of the string, and does not work. You can get the key working again by resetting the value, with: ~$ gsettings reset org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-up -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1302885 Title: Media keyboard shortcuts not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control-center/+bug/1302885/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
