I'll have a squiz at it.. the issue is the eject, vol+, vol- and AV mode buttons use some funky sony 
extended interface and the sonypi driver in the latest kernels reports all the 4 buttons as the same 
button. So there is something else I need to look at perhaps..
I've cheated at the moment and used the play, stop, ff & rew buttons to do the dirty work as I don't 
use 'em in the media player anyway, but I'm sure there is a better way.
