[Bug 1435108] Re: Volume hotkeys stop working (dozens of seconds of delay)

 

I wonder if this is really systemd related, we know that unity-settings-
daemon reveal some similar issues (though, most of the time, they are
all lost and even restarting it isn't succifient as it misses some env
variable to leak in the session).

So, let's figure out if it's systemd related first, can you try to reboot (ensure the upstart package is installed with yesterday's update) and select in grub under more option the upstart entry? Then, do you get the same behavior?
Thanks!

Title:
  Volume hotkeys stop working (dozens of seconds of delay)

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This seems to be a similar problem to the one described here:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1829744

  With recent Ubuntu versions, though, gnome-settings-daemon is not
  there anymore. I tried to kill unity-settings-daemon as a workaround,
  but it doesn't work.

  I followed the instructions here:

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting

  and I can correctly see the keypresses be received correctly both with
  xev and with evtest

  with the latter, I can see that the interesting hotkeys codes:

  Event: time 1427077143.513820, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------
  Event: time 1427077143.616493, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 4 (MSC_SCAN), value ae
  Event: time 1427077143.616493, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 114 (KEY_VOLUMEDOWN), value 0
  Event: time 1427077143.616493, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------
  Event: time 1427077144.292461, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 4 (MSC_SCAN), value b0
  Event: time 1427077144.292461, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 115 (KEY_VOLUMEUP), value 1

  And the events can be seen even when the volume hotkeys are
  unresponsive (the volume is not updated).

  This seems to happen more often (or at least it's more noticeable to
  me) when watching something in fullscreen.

  Keypresses usually aren't lost, but are simply delayed and buffered,
  and thus if I press the button 5/10 times, after half a minute of so,
  all the keypresses will trigger the corresponding action all together
