Odd Winamp and Microsoft Office thing

Here's something weird. Normally I could just alt-tab to Winamp, and with single keypresses do things like pause or so on and then alt-tab back, but after installing Microsoft Office 2007 I can no longer do this. I have to click on the playlist, and then hit whatever keys to carry out normal operations that I could've done easily before. So what's going on?

Why don't you just use Winamp's own hotkeys function? It's still in there, isn't it?

You can switch focus between windows in Winamp by pressing Ctrl-Tab. Maybe not the perfect solution, but if you're alt-tabbing anyway it's not that hard to add those in there.

The solution I worked up was to use the media function keys on my keyboard. Those do the job for now.
