[pkg-cinnamon] Bug#801708: cinnamon: Multimedia keys (play, pause, etc.) do not work

Package: cinnamon
Version: 2.6.13-1
Severity: normal

The "play/pause" key on my keyboard sends the "AudioPlay" key when using
X. This is detected when I configure hotkey bindings in the Cinnamon
control panel.

However, my music players don't play/pause their music when I press this
button.

If I change the keybinding to Ctrl+AudioPlay (or shift, or any other
modifier or combination of modifiers), it works as expected: music
starts and stops on the press of the "Play/Pause" button.

Strangely, the "volume" keys (volume up, volume down, mute) are not affected.
