Hardware Interference w/ Tile Editor

I'm sure this is a fairly inadequate bug, but it can't hurt to mention it.
I am currently working on my laptop (an HP Pavilion ZV5000) which has volume control buttons on the front (down, mute, and up). While working in the Tile Editor I went to turn my music down a little and low-and-behold! Everytime I pushed the down button it toggle'd Layer #0 on/off. I'm not sure if that's exactly what was occuring, but that was the effect that was taking place (ie. not sure if it was toggling view all layers, or what). I played with the buttons for a few other seconds, and it doesn't appear the mute and up button interfered at all.
I guess these buttons send some sort of keyboard event that the Tile Editor interprets as a shortcut to some function. Just thought it was worth mentioning.
