Public bug reported:
At random times, many keyboard shortcuts and special keys such as the following
stop working:
- volume up/down/mute keys
- PrintScreen key and shift+PrintScreen shortcut
- Ctrl+Alt+T for terminal
and probably others. There are shortcuts that keep working, such as
Alt+Tab, and if I remember correctly also Ctrl+Super+D.
This happens quite rarely.
UNLIKE #1459571, which is (supposed to be) fixed, restarting unity-
settings-daemon does help, meaning it makes the shortcuts and keys work
again as expected.
