The play/pause/stop buttons work fine on Google Play music (web client), but not in Windows Media Player or Groove. This problem occurs independent of the keyboard. My USB and laptop keyboards have identical behavior. All other buttons on the keyboards work as designed (volume control, mute, calculator, home page, etc.)
What I've tried:
- I've deleted and re-installed all keyboards in the Device Manager
- Human Interface Device service is running and set to automatically start
Is there some driver specific to just those specific playback functions that I'm missing on my machine? And why would Google Music on the web still function properly?
