I don't know if the standard Kobo coupons work. I *think* they are supposed to because a coupon is not a discount on the list price (a mark-down.) I see others had this question too and I'm as interested as anyone in the answer.
I know Smashwords coupons work because those are not "sales" and they don't change the list price.
Some of this is bound to sort itself out at some point. Meanwhile--I can tell you that as an author, it hasn't been a lot of fun with vendors something lowering the price of books by a lot and then sometimes there was matching and sometimes not...and we had emails and changes in revenue streams and complaints...
