1a) Do the volume buttons generate X keycodes? (Run xev and see whether 
it responds). If so, use xbindkeys.

1b) Else, Use tpb to monitor the nvram for button presses, and use its 
ability to run an arbitary script on button-press.

2) Then, write two short scripts using the amixer command.

You should be able to make the bluetooth volume track the main speakers.
(I suggest that you leave the mute button for the main speakers only).

HTH,
