So the buttons are sending key combinations. You probably don't want to
remap those globally, so I suggest using something like
https://github.com/kmonad/kmonad or https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd to
remap the keys.
keyd only remaps, but doesn't run scripts, so you would have to remap
the key to another one that you can use as a hotkey.
kmonad allows you to run scripts as well.
Thanks, Samuel, it seems perfect!
