Bug Description

On hardy, the package python-mmkeys is somewhat broken. Multimedia keys don't work with python applications, but work with every other app (e.g. totem). Can be tested with the Sonata MPD Client (which uses a PyGTK window). It did work on gutsy though.

I think this a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sonata/+bug/188702 , which has to do with the DBus interface to gnome-settings-daemon. Most Python multimedia applications appear to use that instead of python-mmkeys, when it's available.
