It turns out I made a mistake. I didn't realize that according to the
spec, Space should activate Play/Pause *even if* Back/Forward was
pointed at with a pointing device. That's why Play/Pause was being
highlighted here.

Specification updated.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound?action=diff&rev2=105&rev1=104>

** Description changed:

  indicator-sound 0.6.2-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 11.04
  indicator-sound 12.10.2+13.10.20131011-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 13.10
  
  1. Open the sound menu.
  2. Hover over, or use arrow keys to navigate to, the Back/Rewind button.
  
  What happens: The Play button is highlighted.

  What should happen: The Back/Rewind button is highlighted.
  
  The same problem happens with the Next/Forward button.
  
- <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#playback-item>: "Apart from that, and
- their button appearance, each button should behave in every way like a
- menu item. In particular: * The highlight when a button is moused over,
- or navigated to with the keyboard, should be the same visual style as
- for a menu item in the same theme."
+ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#playback-item>: "The Space key should
+ visibly activate whichever button is highlighted. However, highlighting
+ the Back or Forward button with a keyboard should not be possible;
+ instead, the Left and Right keys should immediately activate Back and
+ Forward respectively whenever any of the three are highlighted."
