I've determined that this is an "application focus" issue in programmer's terms and is still occurring intermittently. It is not that the space bar isn't functioning, it's that OS X is no longer seeing BIAB for the Mac application as having primary focus (meaning that it's not seeing BIAB as being the forefront application) so that key commands aren't being relayed (as if BIAB is in the background).

My guess (having programmed in Cocoa for Mac apps) is that BIAB 2014 for Mac code calls an object function for pause/play that has been deprecated in Yosemite (or has a glitch that has yet to be resolved by Apple in Yosemite if the object call hasn't been deprecated).

Temporary fix if this happens to you:

COMMAND-TAB to BIAB app OR mouse click anywhere on BIAB window to restore focus.
