Bug Description

Since switching to Breezy (and now Dapper) I've noticed the Volume Up and Volume
Down keys no longer change the suond volume. When I press the keys a little
speaker window appears with a progress bar that goes up and down with each keypress.

My computer has two soundcards, and I had to switch the default soundcard using
the Sound control panel applet. Once I made that switch everything works great,
but I am guessing the keyboard volume changing is not using the correct card.

I have the volume applet in my task bar set to use the correct sound card, and
can easily change the volume that way, but using the keyboard buttons can be
convenient.
