[mythtv-users] Media Keys on Remote

Hi all,

I am struggling to get my media keys (play, volume, etc.) working on my Adesso ARC-1100 remote. The Adesso doesn't use Lirc and looks like a standard keyboard. Most of the keys work right out of the box, but it looks like some daemon is picking up the media keys before I can remap them using xmodmap.  

When I press them, I get the notifyOSD OSD windows.  I initially thought it was xfce4-volumed, but I disabled it and even uninstalled the package.

Has anyone else run into something like this?

Here is the results from xev when I press the "Up" key which works:
KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    root 0x19c, subw 0x0, time 3554469, (99,108), root:(850,565),
    state 0x0, keycode 111 (keysym 0xff52, Up), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

Here is the result when I press the "Play" key which doesn't work but shows the notifyOSD pop-up for the play button:

FocusOut event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor

FocusOut event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer

FocusIn event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor

KeymapNotify event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    keys:  29  0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   
           0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   


Thanks,
J
