There's another bug report #744733 concerning the client crashing when trying 
to set a keyboard shortcut for push-to-talk, which I'm not able to replicate.  
Nor this one, unfortunately.  :-(

I'm able to set a push-to-talk key and it works, tested in both KDE4 on 
Unstable and XFCE in a Testing VM, and I have not set the XEVIE extension.

Interesting ... the English version of the Mumble FAQ doesn't mention this.

Hmm okay.

If the issue were really the XEVIE extension being missing from Xorg then 
logically this would be a bug in an X-related package rather than the mumble 
package, but I don't know if that's really the issue.

I've already looked through the Mumble upstream bug reports for push-to-talk 
related issues; the only one I found was this one:

   https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/issues/1187

I'm going to go have a look through the mumble upstream git repo to see if 
there are push-to-talk related commits.
