this prior explanation i gave is likely relevant here #user-interfaces message , but basically your widgets, btn_previous/pause/next, can't receive keyboard events unless they have keyboard focus, and only certain widgets automatically get keyboard focus when you click on them, like Text or Entry

you should bind to the top-level window instead, i.e. Tk() or Toplevel()

for example: ```py
from tkinter import Tk

app = Tk()
app.geometry("300x200")
app.bind("<KeyPress>", lambda e: print(e.keysym))
app.mainloop()```
