I fear this is a Zoom/presentation limitation, and I've so-far only seen
examples where the application is visible and not the presentation. I'm
guessing Zoom doesn't pass presentation shortcuts through properly (even
projectors have a USB link) so you might be a bit stuck on this one.

Let us know if you do find anything ...
