Upgrading to mate-settings-daemon-1.1.1, we readded support to gstreamer (instead of pulseaudio) for media (volume) keys. So, now MATE dont requires PulseAudio.
Now there are two packages that provides mate-settings-daemon:
mate-settings-daemon-gstreamer (default): uses gstreamer to provides media keys.mate-settings-daemon-pulse: uses pulseaudio to provides media keys.Tuesday, January 3 2012

Both plugins are already packaged for Debian/Ubuntu in tridex repository.

The repository was upgraded with 1.1.x MATE packages. Those packages solves many bugs found in the 1.0.x packages (but some other bugs still remaining).
Debian users need to change "sid" to "wheezy" in /etc/apt/sources.list (see mate.karapetsas.com).

We are rebuilding all packages from scratch switching to the upstream versioning schema (YYYY.MM.DD instead of 1.0). In some days the repository will restart to have updates (and bug fixing).
During this time, you can install mate-applets on wheezy installing libgucharmap7 of squeeze:
libgucharmap7_2.30.3-1_i386.deb libgucharmap7_2.30.3-1_amd64.deb

The MATE debian/ubuntu repository is now signed. You can avoid the GPG warning during apt update, installing the mate-archive-keyring package.
sudo apt-get install mate-archive-keyring
