Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
In Hardy (posibly in others too), when gnome-screensaver turns on, it blocks
the volume up/down, play/pause and mute keys.
Maybe it'd be a good idea not to block those specific keys, so that people who
are listening to music with the screen powered off don't need to enter their
password just to use them.
Steps to reproduce.
1- Turn on gnome-screensaver, and select the "Lock screen when screensaver is
active" option.
2- Start rhythmbox and play some music.
3- Wait for the screensaver to appear.
4- Press any of those multimedia keys.
** Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
