[Bug 1385731] [NEW] media keys are wrongly recognised/set

 

Public bug reported:

If you try to bind the media keys
'XF86AudioPlay/Stop/Next/Prev/Mute/etc' via System Settings --> Keyboard
--> Shortcuts, they will not work.

Opening dconf-editor and going to the schema where the just-set
keybindings are stored (e.g. org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-
keys) will reveal that unity-control-center bound the keys as
AudioPlay/Stop/Next/Prev/Mute, i.e. without the XF86 in front of it!

Adding 'XF86' in front of the key names will make them work again.
