The volume keys are simply F7 and F8 keys. However, the hildon desktop captures the key events before they reach your application, so you have to set a Xatom property on the window that wants to receive these keys:

Code:

# we need to notify Maemo5 that we want to use the volume keys
self.__window.window.property_change("_HILDON_ZOOM_KEY_ATOM",
    "XA_INTEGER", 32,
    gtk.gdk.PROP_MODE_REPLACE,
    [1])

That is, call property_change on the GdkWindow (window) member of a GtkWindow or HildonWindow.
