I have some Logitech multimedia keyboard and works well with xmms.
1) find the keycodes for the new keys
2) make your home xmodmap file (mine is bellow)
3) xmodmap the file
4) bind the new keys. I use sawfish, but it should works with others WM

keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume
keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume
