If you have a programmable midi keyboard, you can program a foot pedal to
send an mmc play/pause command to ardour, and there you have it.

Anything that can take MIDI controller
input and
playback audio. I'm not
sure if Audacity does that, actually.
Rosegarden and Ardour both could, and
now that I think of it you might
be able to rig
the Jack transport to start
and stop with a MIDI signal,
and use that to
play Audacity.
