Follow-up Comment #1:

On an Asus Windows 10 laptop I see that the function keys F10 and F11 are
inscribed with volume up and down icons, but when Denemo is running no
keypresses are sent to Denemo when they are pressed. What you are describing
seems like a bug - assuming pressing the keys *is* changing the volume then
the keypress should then be swallowed by the operating system, not passed on
to the program that has the focus. To make matters worse, it would seem from
the keycode reported 0xFFFFFF that it is only part of a multi-key sequence
that is being passed on, the rest are not arriving.
It may well be possible to use either a built in keymapping feature on your
system to correct this, or an externally obtained program.

Finally, it is worth trying this: hover the mouse over a menu item as if you
wanted to set a shortcut and then press the key. If it assigns something to
the keystroke then it will be worth setting the keystroke to the "Do Nothing"
command.
The "Do Nothing" command can be got into the "More" menu by right clicking on
one of the commands there and selecting "NoOp.scm". You can then set any
keypress that you may want to throw away to be a shortcut to it.
