The issue I've faced is that somehow the media key of X86PlayPause event cannot be thrown if not the xbindkeys package is sending it through that specific setting.
It could be that somewhere else I've set some setting for that to happen, but I have no idea where to look. I've now purged xbindkeys and removed the setting file. Everything works perfectly fine even without that command now. Excuse me for this trivial bug which was only on my side. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1406262 Title: Unable to set shortcut to media key PlayPause To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-settings/+bug/1406262/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
