Bug Description
I was using Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) with GNOME on my Dell 500 Laptop for a some time all was fine.
After recent update via Update Manager, some multimedia keys (Mute, Play, Stop) stopped working.
Next and Prev buttons works only if Rhythmbox window is active.
VolumeUp and VolumeDown still works.
Unfortunately i can not localize which update caused regression.
It happend somewhen since Nov 14.
xev sucessfully catches buttons pressing:

But nothing happend after key pressing.
P.S. I tried also assigning Mute key to "Open Home Folder" and it does not working too (home folder does not appear after pressing the key).

Hi,
thank you for reporting this.
Did Intrepid support these buttons out-of-the-box?
Are you using a dell-ppa?
greetings
Martin
