I do all of my testing using azap + mplayer.  That's why I gave you that 
link in my previous email ;-)

Certainly an application issue.  I repeat, try following these 
directions... If you dont have mplayer, then use cat, and play back the 
file using totem, or something:

I'll be honest with you, and I hope that I don't get flamed for this...

Remote mapping is very easy... The code is all there already, just the 
keys havent been mapped.  I just never felt like doing it.  Please, be 
my guest.  When you get it working, submit a patch to the list.  Either 
I, or someone else, will be happy to apply it for you.

If not, maybe I'll get around to it one day... I just dont have time to 
do that now. :-/

Sorry for bad news.
