volume up/down/mute button give a/b/c key press events in cygwin xterm

["Dat Head" <dathead2 at gmail dot com>]

is there any way to avoid this?

i searched the faq and there was nothing and searched the mail list archives
and found the exact same question from 2005 but no replies.

the one good thing is that at least the volume buttons still actually work, just
generates these unwanted letters in xterm window (note, if X pointer focus
is on some non-xterm window it then works ok)

These things have always been the same
So why worry now
