Hello,

when playing a video with MPlayer, hitting and releasing Ctrl key alone
or in a keyboard shortcut like in Ctrl+Alt+{Left,Up,Right,Down} to
switch workspaces makes the close button of the MPlayer video window
stop working. A click on it results only in MPlayer printing

No bind found for key 'CTRL-CLOSE_WIN'.

to stderr. The funny part is that holding Ctrl down while clicking on
the close button works and closes the window.

This issue was raised in
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669773> , I thought that
this could be related to
<http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-users/2011-December/083811.html>.
I can reproduce it with GNOME 2 and Compiz as well.

MPlayer r35003 on Fedora 17 and Ubuntu 11.04.

Thanks,
