I'm using a bluetooth A2DP headset and when I use the play/pause button
it alternates between sending XF86AudioPlay and XF86AudioPause. However,
they don't do anything and Qt doesn't let me map them with global
hotkeys. Furthermore, the next/prev buttons work fine.

The play/pause button on my keyboard works fine and I have no idea what
it sends, xev just reports some focus events and keymapnotify.

The one thing I did notice is that multiple keycodes have XF86AudioPlay assigned:
$ xmodmap -pke | grep XF86Audio
keycode 121 = XF86AudioMute NoSymbol XF86AudioMute
keycode 122 = XF86AudioLowerVolume NoSymbol XF86AudioLowerVolume
keycode 123 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume NoSymbol XF86AudioRaiseVolume
keycode 171 = XF86AudioNext NoSymbol XF86AudioNext
keycode 172 = XF86AudioPlay XF86AudioPause XF86AudioPlay XF86AudioPause
keycode 173 = XF86AudioPrev NoSymbol XF86AudioPrev
keycode 174 = XF86AudioStop XF86Eject XF86AudioStop XF86Eject
keycode 175 = XF86AudioRecord NoSymbol XF86AudioRecord
keycode 176 = XF86AudioRewind NoSymbol XF86AudioRewind
keycode 198 = XF86AudioMicMute NoSymbol XF86AudioMicMute
keycode 208 = XF86AudioPlay NoSymbol XF86AudioPlay
keycode 209 = XF86AudioPause NoSymbol XF86AudioPause
keycode 215 = XF86AudioPlay NoSymbol XF86AudioPlay
keycode 216 = XF86AudioForward NoSymbol XF86AudioForward
keycode 234 = XF86AudioMedia NoSymbol XF86AudioMedia

keycode 208 and 209 are what the bluetooth headset sends.
