Headset media buttons don't work with Android apps

[attah]

I believe the volume buttons are just intermittent in general:

Volume buttons do nothing while screen is off

I too have noticed it, but it only fails about 70% of the time for me. Sometimes it works as it should. This bug has been there a looong time, and over many phones. I keep thinking to report it, but never quite get around to it. But thank you for reporting, i really hope it gets fixed. There is already protection against that, by means of the volume limiter. I don’t believe this to be accurate.

(Although they have been very good for me on my Xperia 10 II)
