MediaKeys don't work on GNOME 3 #22

I'm trying to use this to listen to media buttons on Fedora 21 (GNOME 3) and it never receives the event. GNOME pops up a circle with a slash through it for a second when I press those keys.

If I remove the keybinding shortcut to play media in GNOME then the popup stops appearing, but I stil don't receive the event with jkeymaster.

I think in some configurations dbus is still holding on to those. it's been reported here https://github.com/tulskiy/jkeymaster/issues/15

however, I'm running Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 and media keys work fine for me
