Hey Geoff,
I tried what you suggested and it still doesn't work.  I created a dummy 
hotspot and selected to have the keystroke passed through to the application, 
but it's still not working.

  right. well, that's what I would expect it should do.
  hmmmm. it should be smart enough to pass it through to application, even if
  it has been snaffled in the jkm file by the generic "HSCAssignHotSpot" entry
  for the keystroke. I have one like that here with alt+Top row number 4, and
  it faithfully passes the keystroke directly through to the sonar app and
  pulls up event view, when my pantheon reverb set isn't loaded. that's what
  it ought to do. so if it isn't doing that, then there's a bug or something
  wrong going on here for you.
  as a work-around, in your main set where you want it to pass through to the
  application, you could just define a dummy hotspot for your alt+d key, and
  choose action number 31, passKeyToTheApplication, when asked what type of
  action you want it to perform. that might force it to do what you want. but,
  as I say, it should be smart enough to be doing that already. it does it
  here for me. I wonder whether it's the particular key you've chosen that's
  interfering with that logic somehow.

  says"Alt+D, not assigned in the currently active set". Then it tells you all
  of the other sets that it is assigned in.  Alt+D is assigned in 5 other
  sets, but not in the main set.
