Android Question Problem with intercepting VOLUME buttons

[wimpie3]

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean
    Select KeyCode
        Case KeyCodes.KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP
           'do volume up code
            Return True
        Case KeyCodes.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN
          'do volume down code
            Return True
    End Select
   Return False
End Sub

This works fine when you CLICK the volume keys (short down/up). However, if I keep the buttons down, the native volume interface from my phone shows up on the screen... why?

Intercept KeyUp instead.

Nope, not working, this is even worse, it shows the native volume control all the time, even during short presses.

Might be the device, on mine, I don't have that problem.
