Bug#344794: metacity: global_keybindings are broken for XF86AudioPlay and similar

[Marius Mikucionis]

Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.10.3-2
Severity: important

I have mapped my laptop's multimedia keys to XF86AudioPlay and other codes 
via gnome keyboard shortcuts and added commands in gconf-editor 
(metacity/global_keybindings and keybinding_commands) to react on those keys. 
It used to work until I recently upgraded and rebooted.
I also checked with xev, it recognizes the keys perfectly, 
however metacity fails to execute the commands.
I mainly use gnome/metacity because they are highly configurable, 
hence it's becoming useless now.
I don't want to change my habbits every weekly upgrade, please fix it!
