Enable Multimedia keys for Amarok

Category Linux as a Desktop
This one was driving me nuts and ended up being REALLY easy to resolve.

Delete the Multimedia Shortcuts in System/Preferences/Keyboard Shortcuts. After that, try to enable shortcuts within amarok (Settings->Configure Global Shortcuts).


Now that does get forward / backward, play pause working... but after awhile i wanted ALL the keys working...   Then I found Keytouch.. this awesome utility now has every key working and even allows mapping of keys to different tasks etc.
