Bug Description

Regression in 8.10:
Multimedia keys (volume, mute) of Logitech Cordless Desktop EX110 don't work out of box in Ubuntu 8.10.

In Ubuntu 7.04, 7.10, 8.04 all multimedia keys of my Logitech Cordless Desktop EX110 worked out of the box.

After updating from 8.04 to 8.10 two (2) of these keys don't work anymore. The keys that don't work are:

* Mute
* Volume down.

The volume up key works.
Please let me know, if any additional informations are needed.

FYI: Manuell re-assignment of these two key with 'System/Preferences/Hotkeys' (if the menuentry is called like this in english?) fixed the problem.

Nevertheless, the keys did work before the upgrade to 8.10 - so for me it is some kind of bug.

Thanks.

thank you for your bug report, could you run xev and see what key symbol is generated when using the key? what name do you get for those keys in the keybinding dialog?
