I just followed the troubleshooting guide at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting , and found that the
command "sudo input-events <device num>" correctly prints my multimedia
keys to the terminal when I press them.

When I execute "hal-find-by-capability --capability input | xargs -n1
lshal -u", I find that

input.x11driver = evdev
info.capabilities = { ..., 'input.keys',  ... }

according to the troubleshooting guide, this means I have hit a bug in
X.  :-/
