keystroke action not triggering hotkeys on linux server

I have a setup with a linux server and a windows 8 desktop, and I want to be able to trigger certain globally-bound hotkeys under linux while focus is on the windows client (e.g. start/pause media playback in Clementine, trigger an Openbox keybind). In an attempt to do this, I have an options section with things like the following: [code] keystroke(Control+Alt+w) = keystroke(Meta+Alt+c,server) [/code] Where Meta+Alt+c is a globally-bound hotkey on the linux server, which works if hit directly. However, hitting Control+Alt+w doesn't trigger the hotkey bound to Meta+Alt+c, regardless of which screen has focus when I press the combination.

Having hotkeys used on a client translate back to the server isn't currently implemented. It might be something that can be added in the future :(
