Which version are you using?  The Piano_pedal_performer *should* be 
outputting events for the following:

MIDI CC 64 (0x40) - Damper Pedal On/Off
MIDI CC 66 (0x42) - Sostenuto Pedal On/Off
MIDI CC 67 (0x43) - Soft Pedal On/Off

%%%%
\version "2.20.0"

\score {
  {
    | d'16 \sustainOn fis' g' b'~ 4 r2 \sustainOff
    | c'16 \sustainOn e' f' a'~ 4 r2 \sustainOff
    | cis'16 \sustainOn eis' fis' ais'~ 4 r2 \sustainOff
  }
  \midi { \tempo 4 = 120 }
}
