Bug Description

I'm using Logitech keyboard, model K350. It has hardware play and pause key: http://www.logitech.com/assets/24957/24957.png - above F6 key. It doesn't work with youtube videos, but works with Rhytmbox player. Considering that both apps are in the same menu, I think it should work.

Ubuntu 12.10:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 12.10

Codename: quantal

unity-webapps-youtube version 2.4.10:
$ dpkg -l | grep youtub
ii unity-webapps-youtube 2.4.10 all Unity Webapp for YouTube

I use Ubuntu 13.10 64bit (unity-webapps-youtube 2.4.16+13.10.20130924.2-0ubuntu1) on a Lenovo Thinkpad E530. The play/pause media-key works fine for applications like Banshee, Totem, Rhytmbox etc. but unfortunately fails to play/pause a Youtube video. Manually clicking on the button in the sound-menu for Youtube works as expected.

In addition to the sound-menu, I would love to be able to pause a (background) youtube music-video using my media-keys or the quicklist in the launcher (bug 1132966).
