This Keycode (204) is the same for Apple USB keyboards. This bug is
confirmed in Kubuntu Gutsy with all the latest updates.

I have attached a version of khotkeysrc (~/.kde/share/config/khotkeysrc)
that only has this event in it. It's not actually a patch (though I've
marked it as a patch because it fixes the problem).

If you have other input actions (kcontrol -> Regional & Accessibility -> Input Actions), you should add it yourself.
You can do this by going there (you'll need to open kcontrol through the run command) and making a new action of type "Keyboard Shotcut -> Command/URL (simple)", using your Eject key for the shortcut, and 'kdeeject cdrom' as the command.

I would suggest adding khotkeysrc back to kubuntu-default-settings with
this key included. (This bug is really a kubuntu-default-settings bug in
that case).
