Bug Description

Everything was fine in 13.10 but I upgraded to the 14.04 beta and now my multimedia hotkeys don't work anymore.
The keyboard I'm using also has some special keys but those work just fine.

Wouldn't be quite a regression for me if this doesn't get fixed as I'm using the volume keys on the right all the time as they're very practical.

I'm using 64 bits OS, with Gnome Shell 3.10.1

I have the same issue. Strange thing, if I log back from my session and log in again the keys are sometimes working again.

I'm using: gnome-shell + gdm

Indeed, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Sometimes all the extensions get disabled too.
Gnome-shell + gdm (I think)
