I don't know if this helps, but in the case of the Windows keys XFree used
to see them as regular keys and then one day, it started seeing them as
modifiers (not out of the blue, but with an upgrade). Maybe that's the
problem you're having. I use Xmodmap to remap my Windows keys. My
xmodmaprc looks like this:

keycode 115 = L5

Here's what I have (in case it helps).

Key Up A CM exec aumix -v +2
Key Down A CM exec aumix -v -2

I use CTRL-ALT-(UP|DOWN) to control volume. Comes in helluva handy :-)
