Meanwhile a temporary solution is to use the multimedia widget present in the taskbar system icon manager settings>entry list ; in there you may configure a shortcut for it, really convenient as rhythmbox does not have any fast forward or rewind feature. When setting up a shortcut for a widget present in the system tray mini icons(like weather/multimedia) : either from the widget options directly or from the settings>shortcuts>plasmashell>name of the widget Then after a while, the shortcut disapears from the widget configuration and/or ceases working if it was configured from the plasmashell shortcut settings. Solution is to configure the shortcut directly from the system tray entries but not everyone knows that. I understand that it may not be easy technically to solve, but just a simple communication inside those widgets inviting to use the system tray entries to set up the shorcut could be helpful. |
