Description :
When using LibreOffice with the kf6 VCL plugin on KDE Plasma, pressing the Alt

keyboard accelerators for these sub-menu items do not work.

2. Open a top-level menu (e.g., Format) using the mouse or keyboard.
3. Navigate into any sub-menu (e.g., Format > Text, or Format > Spacing).
4. Press the Alt key to trigger mnemonics.
5. Attempt to press the corresponding letter key for an action.
Actual Results:

key does nothing. Keyboard navigation via Alt + Letter is broken for sub-menus.
