Razer ornata function keys suddenly control google chrome | Razer Insider

This MAY be a chrome problem and I don't think it's a hardware problem.

It could be a synapse problem but I figure I'll ask here:

So as long as I've had this keyboard and another razer one prior if I pressed FN+F6 (play/pause) it would play or pause specific software.Usually spotify/itunes any software playing audio.

As of a few days ago (maybe about a week or two) it will sometimes NOT pause spotify but instead begin playing a youtube video I have open in a tab in chrome.

Odd parts: Chrome, nor the video tab even, are in focus. Usually it's a game I'm playing but it's also been photoshop and such.

When I press the play/pause FN combo, it doesn't work on spotify BUT does work on chrome. As in, neither spotify or chrome are in focus but the combo doesn't even affect spotify but starts playing some open tab with a video.

Any ideas or solutions if this just began happening to others? Again this may very well be a chrome issue somehow and if that's the case and you know the solution I'd be glad to hear it! Thanks 🙂
Hi there! Which version of Synapse are you using? Also, does the same thing happen if Synapse is closed? Let me know.
