Unfortunately not. That package could be recompiled for newer versions of Ubuntu, but the code itself is from gnome-settings-daemon 3.6.4 and will never be updated. It should really be released in it's own PPA, but I could never grasp debian packaging--it is more difficult to package programs for Ubunu than to write them.

Some other gnome-derivative desktops have followed gnome's example by incorporating the media-keys listening service into their own desktop shell.
