Pressing SPACE within Playtime by default starts just Playtime, not REAPER. This can be changed by setting the matrix transport synchronization from "Partial" to "Full".
However, many users seem to have turned SPACE into a global hotkey, making Playtime not aware of it being pressed. That means pressing SPACE always starts REAPER playback. That's bad. I should catch SPACE even if it's a global shortcut.
