Title:
  Application Shortcuts (Hotkeys) Only Sometimes Work

Status in “systemd” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am running Xubuntu 14.04 on a HP Pavilion Chromebook 14. I have set
  the F6 button to execute: "xdotool key XF86MonBrightnessDown" under
  Keyboard --> Application Shortcuts. The brightness only decreases
  sometimes. However, when I execute "xdotool key XF86MonBrightnessDown"
  from a terminal, it always works. Changing the shortcut to execute
  "xfce4-terminal" seems to make the hotkey 100% consistent. However,
  changing it back to "xdotool key XF86MonBrightnessDown" seems to make
  it inconsistent again. This bug did not occur with Xubuntu 13.10.
