Great, thanks for testing.

Hm, I din't see a significant difference. It just shows that X.org
doesn't recognize those keys at all (no KeyPress/KeyRelease events), due
to these key codes being > 255.

You could change the keymap (/lib/udev/keymaps/logitech-wave-cordless)
to assign any other key you like which is smaller than 255. Please see
"grep KEY_ /usr/include/linux/input.h" for available keys. To avoid
overwriting your changes with the next udev package update, you can
create an /etc/udev/rules.d/96-keymap.local with something like

  KERNEL=="event*", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="Logitech*", ATTRS{name}=="Logitech
USB Receiver", RUN+="keymap $name 0xD4 nextsong 0xCC previoussong"

to map the zoom keys to KEY_NEXTSONG/KEY_PREVIOUSSONG (for example).
