Description Mantas Mikulėnas (grawity) 2013-08-02 12:18:06 UTC 
I was testing the MPRISv2 support implemented in bug 697810 and noticed that when I press the "⏯" key gnome-settings-daemon calls Play() instead of PlayPause(), so there is no way to toggle playback anymore.

When using GNOME's media key handling, /all/ players I've ever used have handled the "Play" key as a play/pause toggle. But with MPRIS, most of them strictly follow the spec – Play() starts playback, PlayPause() toggles. gnome-settings-daemon should use the latter.
