Comment:

 I think this is being caused due to olpc-kbdshim handling the volume keys
 directly (we switched to this behaviour to allow users to set volume in
 GNOME).

 Paul, is there any way to disable this when sugar starts up ?

 With the current code in Sugar, I see no way of notifying the trayicon
 that the volume has changed (apart from polling the volume level).
