same old problem with KMix...

[Michael Baranov]

Thanks for the reply!
I've disabled kmilo. Now when I press the VOL+, LOV- buttons nothing 
happens. Configuring global shortcuts in KMix and Amarok doesn't work, 
however I'm able to configure the shortcuts OK. Also MUTE button does 
not work.

Note: PLAY/PAUSE, STOP, FORWARD, REWIND buttons still work with Amarok...

xev output:

Looks like xev reacts when I press these buttons.
Please, help me if you know how...

Thanks!
Michael.
