Sean,

If you have a resource file (.rc) into your program, you can try set highest 
priority to this key binding. Links below above explain better priority of key 
bindings.
 
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/gtk2-Resource-Files.html 
or/and
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/gtk2-Bindings.html

Follow a little example that can help you to develop.

Into your main.c  file 

File main.c
        # Includes .....
        Void functions.....;
        .....
        Int exit(void)
                {gtk_main_quit()};
        .....
        Int main (){
        /* Key binding work fine when you define name to object. You must 
define name for which widget
        * that you built in your interface with function 
gtk_widget_set_name(widget,"widget_name") after
        * create them
        * After named all widget call resource file with key binding setting
        */

        GtkWidget *window;
        window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
        gtk_widget_set_name(widget,"wdteste");  //You must name all widget to 
key binding work fine

        .......//Other widgets into object structure

        gtk_rc_parse("resource.rc");

        /* You must connect some signal that will activate function you wanna 
execute.
        * into this example F1 key will close this app.*/

        g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(window),"destroy",G_CALLBACK(exit),NULL);

        ........ //other functions;
}
//end of file


Example of content resource.rc file

binding "test"
{
        #bind "<ctrl>j" {    # caracter is comment into rc file
        #bind "<alt>q" {

  bind "F1" {
    "destroy" () 
  }
}
        # bindings are associate to object (named) and signal then you must 
choice an object into 
        # object structure. 

# widget "*.object named above" binding : priority "custom binding name"
widget "*.wdtest" binding : highest "test"
# end of file



Try this little program to test function. With me works fine.

Happy xmas.

Ubirajara.

Someone answered this for me on IRC: open dconf Editor and go to 
/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/, there you 
can find and all your custom keybindings and edit them directly.
