Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help to improve Ubuntu.
This is not an issue with acpi-support, which is not involved with hotkey handling in current versions of Ubuntu. But to know where the bug lies, I need to know more about your setup. First, are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
