[Bug 1302885] Re: Media keyboard shortcuts not working

 

Is there something special you need to do after these "solutions".
Because I did the gsettings thing to no avail. I tried the gnome3 thing
and again, nothing changed. Do I need to logout and back in? Do I need
to reboot?

A while ago something got flaky with X so I decided I should logout and
back in. But I couldn't log back in so I had to reboot. When I finally
got back in their were no sound icon, media keys didn't work. No
notifications menu. Emerald wouldn't start, etc. etc. I finally got back
up relatively normal but I can't get this media keys to work and I'm
quite used to them. I'm afraid to even logout and back in let along
reboot because who knows what kinda state I'm gonna come up in!

Title:
  Media keyboard shortcuts not working

Status in Unity:
  Fix Committed
Status in Unity 7.2 series:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I can map the Volume Control keys in Keyboard Shortcuts e.g. Volume
  up/down to Volume up/down, but when I press the Volume keys on the
  keyboard nothing happens.

  I have noticed the same problem with other keys on my Logitech Internet 350 keyboard with Tools, Mail, and HomePage.
  They can all be mapped with Keyboard Shortcuts, but nothing happens afterwards when the keyboard key is pressed.

  All these keyboard settings worked fine in older versions of Ubuntu.
