Version: 1.4.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
The special multimedia keys of certain keyboards (play, pause, next track, etc.) do not work anymore, when running Amarok under Gnome 2.18.
The keys are recognized in "Global Shortcuts" settings, but pressing them does not have any effect. Any normal shortcuts like Super+X work normally.
Apparently there is a new Dbus interface for multimedia keys since Gnome 2.17/2.18.
Here is a link to Ubuntu bugtracker which might provide more info: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/amarok/+bug/87299
Also a link to Gnome bugtracker for Banshee music player which had the same problem. There is a patch for Banshee there; maybe it's useful to fixing this in amarok too: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395433
