I just tried this, and it worked properly for me, as well. However, I remember having trouble with it, at one point... Perhaps it works for most shortcut keys, but not others, similar to the way bug 40747 affects only certain keys ("play (or play/pause)", "pause", "stop playback key"). I am afraid to try, right now, for fear of bug 40747 (it will force me to log out, then back in). I'll try later...
