There are many default multimedia keybindings: volume up-down, play/pause, etc. They are binded to fn+F(1-12). But they are displayed in settings as "Disabled"

I'm having the same issue, but not just that - it seems like these settings are actively fighting with me editing via dconf-editor. My volume media keys suddenly stopped working, so I fixed them via dconf-editor and everything was gravy until I updated today. Now they're broken, and no amount of trying to change it with dconf-editor will work.

Not just that, but trying to fix the keyboard shortcuts using the switchboard keyboard plug doesn't work either - when I click on something to edit, and then press the appropriate shortcut key, it deselects the shortcut and remains "Disabled".

I have the same issue in the "Keyboard" switchboard (everything is Disabled and setting it through this app doesn't work, even actively makes it not work), but setting the values through gsettings makes it work again:

martin@juno ~ $ gsettings list-recursively | grep "media-keys volume"
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-mute 'XF86AudioMute'
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-up ''
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-down 'XF86AudioLowerVolume'
martin@juno ~ $ # "volume up" doesn't work
martin@juno ~ $ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-up 'XF86AudioRaiseVolume'
martin@juno ~ $ gsettings list-recursively | grep "media-keys volume"
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-mute 'XF86AudioMute'
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-up 'XF86AudioRaiseVolume'
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys volume-down 'XF86AudioLowerVolume'
martin@juno ~ $ # "volume up" works again

I think all the shortcuts got disabled somehow. I can't even Super+T to bring up Terminal, but it isn't shown as disabled. My system is up-to-date as of yesterday, and this didn't happen until I restarted.

Same issue. Fixing it with dconf doesn't make a difference.
