It looks like brltty is actually now doing roughly what it's supposed to be 
doing with these keys. Put a different way, the device is indeed sending HID 
keyboard packets and brltty is correctly processing those packets. Now we just 
need to learn a bit more about the BC FP's tables which govern what these keys 
generate. Does it have settings for this? If so, what are the settings called 
and what can each of them be set to? If there are tables, are you able to 
access them (perhaps they're on the BC's system drive)? If you can access the 
tables, would you be able to send them to me?
