CS6 shortcut with Topaz Photo AI

Hi, I've just bought Topaz Photo AI and want to use it as a plugin with my old CS6. 
Photo AI has two paths in the PS6 menu: File/Automate and Filter/Topaz Labs. The first one is for the complete Photo AI and will not work with CS6, but the filter path version has the options I actually need, and it works fine when opening it from the menu. 
However, there is a problem with keyboard shortcuts: If I make a shortcut for the filter path, it will work fine until I exit CS6 and restart it. The shortcut will then try to open the automate path version - which, as I said, will not work. It's as if the automate path "steals" the shortcut every time CS6 starts. 
Any suggestions as to how I can avoid this? I mean, the app works fine as a plugin, so it's all about making a permanent shortcut that can ease my workflow.

If the filter call can be recorded to an Action, then try using that Action to call the filter and assign a key to it.

Thank you! Looks like this was a perfect solution. Now I just need to hit one key to load the plugin, and it seems to work fine.

Not sure there is a solution - the plugins are not listed as compatible with CS6 so the fact that the filters are even working is amazing.

Thanks! That's what I thought, too. As for now, I open my CR2 files with Photo AI, do the sharpening, denoising and sometimes cropping, and export it as DNG. I will then do the rest in CS6 and Skylum apps. Still, from time to time I need to do denoise and sharpening from CS6, but not very often.
