I just looked up a previous post from you:
    keys->insertItem (i18n("Next Track in Playlist"), "Next track", "F21", 0);
    keys->insertItem (i18n("Previous Track in Playlist"), "Prev", "F23", 0);
    keys->insertItem (i18n("Start playing"), "Play", "F20", 0);
    keys->insertItem (i18n("Pause playing"), "Pause", "F22", 0);
    
    keys->connectItem ("prev", this, SLOT(back ()));
    keys->connectItem ("next", this, SLOT(skip ()));
    keys->connectItem ("pause", this, SLOT(pause ()));
    keys->connectItem ("play", this, SLOT(play ()));

In this case, the problem is that the name is case-sensitive, so where you 
insert "Prev" and connect to "prev", the connection won't be made.  
connectItem() SHOULD indeed return a bool.  I'll be commiting a new 
KGlobalAccel class in mid-November that fixes that for KDE 3.0.

If fixing that doesn't work:
Run kdebugdialog and select 125 KAccel.  This will give you KGlobalAccel 
status output to let you know what's happening.  Send me the output then to 
look at.  Could you post your current connectItem() calls, too?
