Dan, searching bugzilla for XF86Audio showed this:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147143 -- exactly your 
XF86AudioRaiseVolume not working.

Strangely, the upgrade from kde-3.5.4 to 3.5.5 made all three sound 
buttons stop working for me.  KControl would indeed not accept any 
of the sound buttons when trying to define a shortcut, it would 
accept XF86Mail or XF86Search, for example, but not a XF86Audio*.

The way to get out of this is to go to KMix > Settings > Configure 
Global Shortcuts, and click Defaults -- this should set them all to 
None, otherwise manually select None for all three.  And click OK.  
Then configure the Global Shortcuts again: now that they are unset, 
the dialog will accept the keys.

Somehow the audio keys get caught before arriving at the 
key-definition dialog.  This is easily heard when trying to 
redefine Mute when it's already defined: instead of seeing 
XF86AudioMute as the key to be used, it mutes the sound.
