Public bug reported:
I recently upgraded from Lucid to Maverick, and noticed a regression. I
have a keyboard shortcut Mod4+p (aka Super/Windows key) bound to run the
command "rhythmbox-client --play-pause". I've had this shortcut since
Karmic, it always worked fine.
After upgrading to Maverick, the shortcut still works to play/pause
Rhythmbox, but the entire screen flashes when I press it. That is, the
screen appears to go entirely black and then redraw very quickly
(probably less than 10ms). I'm running metacity, not compiz, but I
suspect it's not a metacity bug. I have a local build of metacity in my
home dir, and the bug occurs with that build as well (and this
executable worked fine pre-upgrade).
Digging through the keyboard shortcuts and even searching in gconf-
editor, I can't find any other shortcuts bound to <Super>p that could be
interfering. If I reassign to Mod4+r, the shortcut works and no
flickering happens. It's something special about Mod4+p.
