Have you tried running them at the command line, e.g. /usr/bin/xmodmap -e "keycode 0xae = XF86AudioLowerVolume" ? If they don't work at the command line they presumably won't work in .Xmodmap. Actually, I found that my .Xmodmap wasn't working after a recent upgrade (don't remember the details) and now I put the commands in .xinitrc.
