I 've got my hotkeys to work like this:

1)
Use xev (X utility program) to find out the keycodes of those hotkeys. Next,
edit .Xmodmap in your $HOME as follows:

keycode xxx = Fyy where 'Fyy' is a non-existing key on your keyboard (e.g.
F35)

2)
Make sure KDE is NOT using it's own keyboard-maps: KControl -> Keyboard

3)
There is some simple way to make X to re-read your .Xmodmap-file but I
forgot how so restart X.

4)
When configuring shortcuts in KDE all Fyy hotkeys should be avaiable.

Cheers,

Benoît
