Multimedia keys F9-F12 no keyboard keycode T440s #5

Hey all,

I'm trying to reconfigure the F9-F12 keys to use as multimedia keys like backward play/pause and forward keys on my Lenovo T440s running Arch Linux. To do so I wan't to remap them to the accompanying Xf86 multimedia keys as mentioned in the Arch Wiki.

When checking the keyboard, the keys ranging from F9-F12 send the same keycode: 240 and when trying to find the underlying scancode the keys seem to be dead. I can't really remap the keys if they all have the same keycode...

Does anyone have a idea on how to fix this?
