Volume keybindings do not work at all. 
- Tried changing bindings to several different keys with no success
- Tried to et Xfmedia to use different audio drivers from preferences, no
success (used auto, alsa, oss, esd)
- Tried the controls with Xine-ui (0.99.3) and everything worked fine
- Tried the controls with gxine (0.44) and everything worked fine

I'm using Ubuntu with on x86 platform, like in bug #1194 which was ignored
earlier. This bug is really bugging me...

I have taken a look into this problem, this is what I found:
On key press the volume is increassed or decreases by 2, this doesn't work.
I change the value to 5 and 10, than it works like a charm.
So I tested some more values, all down to 3 seem to work.
I guess this has to do somthing with either xine(unlikly) or pcm audio volume(alsa in my case) which seem to have a step size of somthing around 3.
I suggest to change the volume increment and decrement to 5 (or so).

Xfmedia is unmaintained.
