I rebuilt my .debs and reinstalled and the F-keys for music/audio are working now on my Macbook pro.

John Not 100% sure, but I think that it will work if you have gnome-dbus running, you can check what services gnome runs at startup to verify that. Then you can configure e17 to run those via settings-apps-desktop environments-start GNOME services on login. Alternatively, you can define your own key bindings in e17 (settings-key bindings).
