Spotify Windows 10 app conflict #288

Closed ArielMatC closed 6 years ago

ArielMatC commented 6 years ago

When keysocket extension is enabled, my keyboard media keys don't work on Spotify Windows app. If I disable keysocket, the media keys work again on Spotify app. I have Windows 10

This also applies to pretty much any application allowing global hotkeys with media keys, for example media players such as VLC. What is bothersome is that it even happens when there's no tab open that this extension can control. (At least I'm pretty sure there isn't, I do have quite a few windows and tabs open currently)

Global key bindings work with one application at a time. They both can't use them in the same time. Shortcuts are set via chrome, extension does not control weather binding is active or inactive.
