    Description

      When a Qt 5.4 application window has the active focus the media keys on the keyboard (for example VK_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE or VK_MEDIA_NEXT_TRACK) get eaten by the Qt application. Qt 5.3.x applications (and any other windows applications) let the keys through to the active media player.

      Reproducible with QtCreator 3.3.0 (built with Qt 5.4.0 MSVC 2010 32-bit) and Windows Media Player.
