Play/Paue (F8) key doesn't function.

[Abercombie]

Hello guys,

I have MacBook Pro early 2008 running OS X Lion. I've noticed today that the
F8 key stopped working. It doesn't open iTunes anymore, doesn't play or pause songs,
and the forward and backward keys also don't functioning.

I created a new user account to check if the problem is in the button itself or in the system.
Luckily, the buttons functioned well when I tested them.

I went back to System Preference in my user account and restore all keyboard short-cuts settings to defaults.
Unfortunately, it didn't help at all.

Any suggestion what to do next?

Do the F! to F6 keys work?

Yes, all the F(x) buttons (except F7, F8 and F9) works.
