I also have this problem with Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS.  I have just down-
graded gnome-settings-daemon to 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 (the only other version
apt-cache showed me) and restarted, and this has fixed the issue.
Volume up/down/mute all fail to work with 3.4.2-0ubuntu0.6.6 - these
keys appear ignored (though a terminal loses focus when they're
pressed.)

Comment #8 requested information by running gnome-settings-daemon in debug mode 
using "gnome-settings-daemon --debug --replace" - with the above version, I get 
"** (gnome-settings-daemon:6486): WARNING **: Unknown option --replace
".  I tried some other approaches, and finally got it running in debug mode.

When I press the media keys, I get:

(gnome-settings-daemon:7320): media-keys-plugin-DEBUG: Launching action for key 
type '4' (on device id 7)
(gnome-settings-daemon:7320): media-keys-plugin-DEBUG: Launching action for key 
type '5' (on device id 7)
(gnome-settings-daemon:7320): media-keys-plugin-DEBUG: Launching action for key 
type '3' (on device id 7)

So it seems to be detecting the key presses - but still, nothing
happens.
