[xmonad] Mod Key Issues - Sometimes

[wagnerdm at seas.upenn.edu]

No, this is definitely not a common problem. Could you put your config  
somewhere online and point us to it? (e.g. hpaste.org) Could you also  
give detailed instructions for reproducing the problem (i.e. detailed  
enough for someone like me who has never used Rhythmbox before to  
follow)?
