Firefox takes over windows hotkeys (Fn + Volume Up). I am used to adjusting global volume control (windows mixer) from my keyboard, but firefox takes over Fn + ... hotkeys so they don't work in firefox windows. How to disable this feature in firefox? Thanks

Is your Volume Up key shared with another key, or is it a dedicated button?

Does this happen after you click in a plugin, for example, to pause/resume some Flash media?

This is still a problem and a very annoying one!! With the newer versions of adobe flash (currently here 11.5.502.135) I cannot change volume with Fn+F keys after pressing anywhere on my firefox window. First I have to unfocus my firefox window and only then I can change volume. This problem doesn't occur in flash player 10.3 for example.
