It seems that audacious-3.10 with qt5 does not let me use keyboard multimedia keys. As far I understand, this version support only qt5 and gtk2, gtk2 support being droped in ebuild. Is there a workaround ? Am I just unable to find the option/use flag to activate support for multimedia keys ?

Gnome hotkeys support was dropped in 3.10 after being broken by Gnome 3.26. I can use my media keys for playback next/prev, volume up/down, play/pause and stop by acessing audacious through the MPRIS interface (e.g. Plasma Media Player Widget implements it).
I activated MPRIS support in audacious and I can control audacious via xfce-pulseaudio-plugin. Also had to define keyboard shortcuts for audacious --play-pause/fwd/rew/stop. Thank you!
