Can't get {MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE} to work

[RasmusJ]

Hi, 

Completely new to AutoIt here. I am making some very simple scripts, that I need for some voice control. 

Each script just contains one line

Send("{MEDIA_NEXT}")

Send("{MEDIA_PREV}")

Send("{MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE}")

etc.

Now the first two scripts works fine both in script and compiled form. 

The last one Send("{MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE}") however are giving me some problems. 

If I run it in SciTE it works fine, and I can see the expected action on my computer. 

however if I run the script by right click->run script  or in a compiled version, then my computer don't react to it. 

I am running on Windows 8.1 btw. 

Anyone, who knows why this is, and how I can fix it?

BR,

Rasmus

got it to work through C#, through this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18839510/virtualkeycode-media-play-pause-not-working

But still interested in a way to get it to work in AutoIt. 

btw. I also tried AutoHotKey and it didn't work either.
