Some keyboard shortcuts won't work on Manjaro KDE

  • Super+Left arrow
  • Super+Right arrow
  • CTRL+ALT+T
I initially thought these might not be default and so I did some searching. I eventually found where the shortcut settings were and confirmed they were actually set in the Global keyboards shortcuts already. But for some reason, they don't work.

To be clear, what happens when say for example I press Super+Right arrow it brings up the menu. It was like it was not detecting I pressed the arrow key.  Doing CTRL+ALT+T just does not do anything. Good thing though that Super+E works and launches Dolphin just fine. CTRL+Esc shows me System Activities. I only tried those keys because they are for things I usually do. I did not test any other shortcuts.




Someone out there may have a fix they have tried and I would really appreciate suggestions.

I have the ISO (UK) keyboard and the keyboard settings say the keyboard model is Generic 105-key PC (Intl.), if that makes any difference.

I have the same  keyboard and keyboard settings as you and the same issue.  To get  CTL ALT T to work,  I had to add a global shortcut for Konsole,  and and assign it to CNTL ALT T.  (the system indicated I was reusing the definition from KDE daemon,  but as you noted that didn't work.   I haven't had a chance to play with this much, yet.
