Bug ID: 429122 Summary: Alt+key disabled in main layout when adding secondary layout that has 'grave' Product: systemsettings Version: 5.19.5 Platform: Manjaro OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: kcm_keyboard_layout Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: darkst...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY In Plasma, when I add a second layout the layout that containts 'grave' as the secondary symbol in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ then while in the first layout pressing alt+(the key that contains grave in the second layout) no longer registers, so even when testing with 'xev' pressing the alt+key will not register a KeyPress event, only a KeyRelease event. Removing the secondary layout or removing the 'grave' from the symbols definition in the aforementioned directory will make the Alt+key work again. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add Arabic as Secondary Layout 2. While in primary English layout run Xev to test key presses 3. Press Alt+u in xev. OBSERVED RESULT The Keypress of Alt+u will not be registered. EXPECTED RESULT The Keypress of Alt+u should be registered.
