Bug Description

Config: Edgy with kernel 2.6.17-8-generic, Dell Latitude D810, KDE, dual head configured with two separate devices, ie. I have two panels, two desktop switchers, two K menus, etc., and I can't drag windows from a desktop to another. For X, I have two display: internal is :0.0 and external is :0.1.

Problem: the volume hotkeys don't work if the focused window is on the external display. The volume OSD does not appear and volume is not affected.

On Gutsy, I still cannot adjust audio volume using the hot keys when focus is on the secondary head.
