[Bug 12178] Re: Gnome CD player isn't controlled by multimedia keys

[Loe Spee]

What doesn't work are the multimedia keys. (The fancy additional keys on your keyboard, but really nice to skip to the next track for example, without switching back to Rhythmbox.)
You can configure these keys in the Keyboard Shortcuts preferences tool in Gnome.

The only fix for this now is to use Banshee. It really is a missing
feature in Rhythmbox.
