Bug Description

Media keys (play/pause, next, previous) doesn't work with the linux version of Spotify, neither in Natty or Oneiric. In Oneiric, a notify OSD appears when I press one of the keys mentioned, but nothing happens. In Natty nothing happens at all.

Not sure if it's a Ubuntu or Spotify bug, but since Spotify is integrated in the sound menu after installing it, I'm filing a bug here for the moment.
