In the CW/RTTY/SSB Memories window, click the SSB radio button.  When
defining the SSB message content, enter the command %GKx in the desired
function key to send Macrox to the radio with keyboard focus.
For example:
F1/F11:   %GK10
F2:   %GK11
F3:   %GK12
F4:   %GK13

(And remove your ini file keyboard shortcuts for RigKbdCommand)

You might find it easier to just stomp on the footswitch, PTT or trip your
VOX.  The K3 will stop playing the message.
