Ubuntu 20.04 keyboard media keys do not work

keyboard shortcut-keys media-buttons

Solution 1:

I have found a solution to my media keys problem on Ubuntu 20.04.1

By default the Media Play button is not set on 20.04 out of the box.

Go to Settings → Keyboard Shortcuts and move down the list to the Sound and Media section and navigate down the list to Play (or play/Pause) which will open the set key dialogue box

Once there, press the Home Page (WWW) button to set it and finish off by selecting Set
