Bug Description
When a brightness, volume, or eject key is pressed on a keyboard, focus changes in the current window. At its mildest, this has odd visual effects. At its worst, it causes the Adobe Flash player to exit full-screen mode.
Steps to reproduce, A:
1. Start playing a movie full-screen with the Adobe Flash plug-in.
2. Press a brightness, volume, or eject key on the keyboard.
What happens: The Flash plug-in exits full screen.
What should happen: It shouldn't.
Steps to reproduce, B:
0. Switch to a theme where the focused and unfocused selection colors are obviously different, e.g. New Wave.
1. In any standard GTK text field (e.g. GEdit or Geany), select some text.
2. Press a brightness, volume, or eject key on the keyboard.
What happens: The selected text momentarily goes grey.
What should happen: The selected text stays the same color.
Steps to reproduce, C:
1. Start writing an OpenOffice.org Writer document.
2. Press a brightness, volume, or eject key on the keyboard.
What happens: The insertion point disappears for as long as the key is being pressed.
What should happen: The insertion point keeps blinking as normal.
Steps to reproduce, D:
1. In Firefox, tab to a link in a page, so that its URL appears in the status bar.
2. Press a brightness, volume, or eject key on the keyboard.
What happens: The URL momentarily disappears from the status bar.
What should happen: The URL stays where it is.

In case of misunderstanding, the situation is:
when I adjust the system volume with the, in my case, laptop special keys, the gnome progress bar relative to sound, raises up and flash gets out full screen.
