Bug Description

Special keys (volume control) do not work when a menu or dropdown list is unfolded. This is rather confusing for the user as it seems that the keys are not working. I can reproduce this error both in all gtk and qt applications so I don't know which piece of software is responsible for this behavior. Can anyone reproduce this error on other hardware?

Ubuntu Karmic Koala x86_64

Hardware
Lenovo T400
