Media Controller shortcuts are configured in System Settings, but the buttons on my keyboard aren't doing anything. To get the volume keys to work, I installed kmix and configured shortcuts for that instead and it worked. I can't find another application, though, for the Previous,Play, and Next buttons.

Anybody else having this issue?

Hi!

What keyboard do you use? USB?
Latest uefi flashed?
Do you get relevant kernel messages? (`journalctl -kg Keyboard` for keyboard info, `journalctl -b -p warning` to show all errors and warnings for current boot)
Further you can check for hwdb.d-entries or libinput-quirks fitting your device using the sysfs-path/event number from above or requesting it again (example for default usb-hid device!):

Code: Select all

# info about keys, sysfspath, etc.:
grep 120013 -A4 -B8 /proc/bus/input/devices

# request libinput quirks, where /dev/input/event number can be seen in proc or journalctl output
# see https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/device-quirks.html#device-quirks
libinput quirks list /dev/input/event0

# query systemd-hwdb (for libinput < 1.12)
# getting the modalias
cat $sysfspath_from_above/modalias
# take the first part, e.g.
# input:b0003v046DpC328e0110-e0,1,4,11,14,k71,72,73,74,75,77,79,7A,7B,7C,7D,7E,7F,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,8A,8C,8E,96,98,9E,9F,A1,A3,A4,A5,A6,AD,B0,B1,B2,B3,B4,B7,B8,B9,BA,BB,BC,BD,BE,BF,C0,C1,C2,F0,ram4,l0,1,2,sfw
# → b0003v046DpC328e0110
# query:
systemd-hwdb query hid:b0003g0001v0000046Dp0000C328


Empty results mean: no quirk, no hwdb-entry for this device.

Check signaling:

Code: Select all

sudo evtest /dev/input/eventX  # X is the number from above


Do the keys pressed generate output?
