In case no one knows, the Cordless Elite has a bunch of media keys at the top; Play, Stop, a volume knob, Mute, etc.
I have all the keys working and picked up by Fedora; however, Fedora doesn't react to the volume knob being turned up at all.
Oddly enough, if I use xev, the knob IS deteched and given the correct key event, and I can even set it using KHotkeys. However, the system never does anything when I use it outside of those situations.

Menu: System | Preferences | Personal | Keyboard Shortcuts then scroll down to "Volume down" and "Volume up" under Sound....
(Note this is Fedora 7 -- may be in a slightly different location in your version.)

I use KDE, not GNOME. Plus, setting the hotkeys in either desktop doesn't work, as I mentioned before. The key IS picked up by the hotkey programs, but when I use the key normally, it is NOT picked up.

I'd seen similar behaviour. If I defined the keys properly, some things would work with it, but XMMS ignored it. Alternatively, not defining them, XMMS would pay attention to the raw key codes. GRR... I gave up, at least I could easily pause some music playing if the phone rang.
