[Bug 898604] [NEW] Kubuntu 11.10 keyboard shortcuts fail

[Antonio Sánchez]

Public bug reported:

Hello.

It seems keyboard shortcuts custom associations are not working in
Kubuntu 11.10 (64 bits).

I have created a shortcut for opening E-mail client (Thunderbird) using
'Mail' hot-key, using 'Standard shortcuts' preference window. The hot-
key is detected and the shortcut is configured, but pressing the hot-key
does nothing. The same for other keyboard combinations.

Conversely, audio volume hot-keys are working, even the corresponding
association in 'Global shortcuts' for Amarok is empty,  while shortcuts
for 'stop/pause/next...' are attached to the corresponding hot-keys but
these are not working.

It is a fresh installation.
