Hotkeys are language dependent and work in English language only.
While writing in any other language i.e. any Cyrillic, it's impossible to use 
hotkeys, they just don't do anything. Switching to English input language 
enable hotkeys once again.

This is very frustrating as user needs to switch language to save
document, to make it bold, or italic, etc.

started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is

to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 
prereleases.

Adding more info.

Verified and reproduced on: 3.4.3, 3.4.4, 3.5.0.beta1 and 3.5.0.beta2.
Mac OS X specific.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Writer.
2. Change language to Russian.
3. Press Cmd+B to change font weight to bold.

Error: Font weight does not get changed. System error sound is played
instead.

Expected: Font weight changed to bold.

Note that some other system hotkeys work as expected. I.e. Cmd+S to
save, or Cmd+O to open document still work regardless of input language.
Other critical key combinations that don't work: Cmd+I, Cmd+U and so on,
all text manipulation hotkeys are English-only. One may assume that
hotkeys don't work correctly in text area, but do work for UI.

Workaround 1: Click toolbar button to apply corresponding style.
Workaround 2: Change language to English, press desired hotkey, then switch 
language back to russian.

The issue is critical, as it make text editor very slow for keyboard-
only typing.

I also confirm this in LibreOffice 3.6.3, and it is really annoying to

I use Fedora, but this problem was not occurred in Fedora 17 or Windows,
as they both use a different keyboard handling method than Fedora 18
(http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F18_bugs#Installer_does_not_automatically_set_up_multiple_keyboard_layouts_and_switch_command).
But now in Fedora 18, lots of program are affected by this change.

Applications such as gedit, nautilus, fileroller (Archive Manager) which
are parts of gnome act like before, which means there is no difference
which keyboard layout is currently active, the keyboard shortcuts work
OK. But other applications usually is not the same, like LibreOffice,
Zim, Blender, ... .

So, I don't know where the problem is, but as (let say native) gnome
applications are working fine, so there must be a way to solve this
problem with others.

I realy dont know why no developer really pay attention to fix this problem.
It may looks like that it is not important but it really affected the 
productivity of LibreOffice for non-Latin users.

Today I downloaded LibreOffice 4.0.0.3 from the official website and the
problem still is there.

I also install all available desktops in Fedora 18 repo and test
LibreOffice against theme to check whether the problem of keyboard
shortcuts in non-latin layout is steal exist or not:

KDE: No problem
MATE: No problem
XFCE: No problem
 
LXDE: Problem exist
Cinnamon: Problem exist

All the three first desktops still use the same keyboard handling as
they used to be, but Cinnamon is based on gnome 3 and inherits its
problems, and I have no idea about LXDE problem.

I really hope someone at last pay some attention to this problem and
attempt to fix it.

Well, not too surprising, the problem is still exist using Gnome 3.7.5
and LibreOffice 4.0.0.3. This means that LibreOffice needs to make some
changes in its keyboard shortcut handling, as it's likely that gnome is
not and will not follow its old keyboard management.

I am really hoping some developer at least look at this bug and put some
information or notes here.

Very annoying. The only workaround is to use other apps, like gedit for 
example. All hotkeys work great in any language there.

Using ArchLinux with latest GNOME-Shell 3.8 from gnome-testing repo.

I have the same problem. When my keyboard layout is in a non-English

customized LO‌ shortcuts).

My system: Linux Mint Debian Edition Update Pack 6, XFCE 4.8,
LibreOffice 3.5.4.2, both libreoffice-gnome and libreoffice-gtk packages
installed.

Also in my case, as AshkanV mentioned in comment #5, many other applications 
work just fine. I'm in XFCE but I also have Gnome, KDE and Mate installed. And 
text editors of all of these DEs work correctly.

Someone also suggested resetting LO user profile in duplicate Bug 63763:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile

However as mentioned in comment #13 this bug could be reproduced in
LibreOffice 4.0.2.2 on MacOS X 10.8.3, which complicates the situation.

This bug is reproducible on gnome-shell in ubuntu 13.10, which handles
now keyboard events with the new gnome-settings-daemon instead of
directing them to X. It is indeed a crucial issue for all of us who
happen to work with a non-latin language.

Workarounds to use toolbar buttons or select English keyboard layout,

It is very important bug because make work very slow.

Title:
  All hotkeys of LibreOffice don't work in non-English keyboard layout
  [ubuntu 13.10]

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Hotkeys (Ctrl+b, Ctrl+s etc) in LibreOffice are language dependent and
  work in English language only. While writing in any other language
  i.e. any Cyrillic, it's impossible to use hotkeys, they just don't do
  anything. Switching to English input language enable hotkeys once
  again. This is very frustrating as user needs to switch language to
  save document, to make it bold, or italic, etc.

  This was not experienced in Ubuntu 13.04.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. System Settings > Text Entry.
  2. Add another keyboard layout beside English [In my case it is Bengali 
(Probhat)] 
  3. Now launch Writer.
  4. Switch the keyboard layout from English (US) to Bengali (Probhat) by 
pressing Ctrl+Space.
  5. Press Ctrl+B to change font weight to bold.

  Error: 
  Font weight does not get changed.

  Expected: 
  Font weight should change to bold.

  Note:
  none other system hotkeys work as expected. I.e. Ctrl+s to save, or Ctrl+b to 
subscript, or Ctrl+i to italic etc.

  Workaround: 
  The only way is to -
  1. change the keyboard layout to English
  2. then press desired hotkey
  3. then switch keyboard layout back to Bengali.

  The issue is critical, as it make writer very slow for keyboard-only
  typing.
