I would make sure that there is no other action bound to the keys that you
are trying to use, either in Qt or TDE (both call them "Actions").  IIRC
it is not possible to use modifier keys
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modifier_key) alone to trigger an Action due
to the way X11 and Qt handle input.  This could possibly be fixed, but it
would take some work in the Qt Action handler code.

Hope this helps!
