No I had a possibility to check the situation for the question: Do you have an active "gsd-media-keys" process when getting the issue?
I have the /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-media-keys ELV binary, but I do NOT see in the linting of "ps auxw", and even the output of "ps acuwx | fgrep gsd" is empty. Interestingly the output of "journalctl | grep gsd-media-keys" remained exactly the same, as 3 days before, no new entry. But none of the two user defined shortcuts work, while all the usual system default shortcuts work. I welcome further test suggestions in order to be prepared if next time the issue appears. One thing is interesting, that just after updating to 18.04, the frequency of the issue became high for a few days, and as soon as I submitted this issue, I had to wait 3 days (4 booting) in order to get the issue again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1755106 Title: /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/ fails to load Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: $ dconf dump /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/ [custom1] binding='<Primary><Alt>BackSpace' command='gnome-session-quit --power-off' name='gnome-session-quit --power-off' [custom0] binding='<Primary><Alt>g' command='gnome-terminal --geometry=80x99-0+0' name='gnome-terminal --geometry=80x99-0+0' $ In spite of the above, time to time, not always, but since 18.04 much much more frequently this settings fails to become active just after booting, ... my account is logged in automatically just after boot. If I log out and log in again, then these key bindings work. If I go to the system settings, and define again, then these work again. Earlier, before 18.04 this phenomenon was rare, namely once a week at most. But since 18.04 it is almost guaranteed, not deterministic, but highly probable, that after an initial boot or a warm reboot these key bindings will not work.
