Hello all, 
:
I ran into this same issue on my hp dv5. Here's what I did to get that button 
working properly:

(better safe than sorry):
sudo cp /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kubuntu.xmodmap 
/usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kubuntu.xmodmap.bak

edit /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kubuntu.xmodmap (as root or via
sudo)

change the line in that file reading: 
keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume

to read:
keycode 174 = XF86AudioStop

Save the file.

Log out/log back in to kde.

Bam, it works. Hope that helps someone.
