khotkeys and multimedia keys

i have a problem with the multimedia keys on my dell i8600 and khotkeys.
In khotkeys i can assign the XF86AudioNext key to an event(juk next track), but when i press the key nothing appears to succeed.
In xev i can see the next output

[code:1]
KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3a00001,
root 0x93, subw 0x0, time 1870128, (113,116), root:(415,147),
state 0x10, keycode 153 (keysym 0x1008ff17, XF86AudioNext), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""

KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3a00001,
root 0x93, subw 0x0, time 1870232, (113,116), root:(415,147),
state 0x10, keycode 153 (keysym 0x1008ff17, XF86AudioNext), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""
[/code:1]

If i change the key for other than a multimedia key i have not problem.
If I try to change the keys inside juk I have the same problem.
Where is the problem??? why khotkeys and xev can see the keys, but they fails??

I post the same topic in the gentoo forums.
i'm sorry for my english.
