I like "Key System". But "System K" is also good. The "K" there doesn't sound 
intrusive, but rather suggests harsh electronica/industrial theme, as 
intended.

"Kalaxy" does sound artificial, but "Sounds of the Galaxy" seems too long, not 
catchy at all. How about "Galactic", "Galaktic", "Galactik" or even 
"Galaktik"?  I like the last one the most. Also, it goes well with "Plastik" 
and "Keramik".

But remember that these are only codenames, we'll have plenty of time to 
decide on them before the release. Of course, experience shows that bad names 
tend to stick, so maybe it is better to discuss on them early ;-)

That said, I'm delighted to read that there will be something new and cool to 
replace current, a bit dated, sound scheme. Even though I don't use system 
sounds (If only because I haven't come yet to configuring dmix properly ;).
