Screenshot while hitting the key [calculator]

SUMMARY
However the keyboard is fully supported the user assignement of shortcuts does not accept the extra keys on the keyboard => calculator, mail, search, home, favorites, etc.

For instance: the search key (scancodes 0xe0 0x65 / 0xe0 0xe5) is available in the pre defined assignement of krunner. But if I want to assign the calculator key (scancodes 0xe0 0x21 / 0xe0 0xa1) to kcalc the shortcut module does not react on the keystroke

I am running on EndeavourOS Gemini-nova - complete fresh installation with plasma setup from "extra":
   sudo pacman -S plasma-meta   kde-system-meta 
   sudo pacman -S kdeconnect  kdenetwork-filesharing  kget  kio-extras  kio-zeroconf
   sudo pacman -S filelight  kate  kcalc  kdialog  koncole  ktimer
   sudo pacman -S gwenview  okular  spectacle  colord-kde  kruler
   sudo pacman -S kdenlive  kruler  kdeplasma-addons 

 I did not install packages still depending on QT5:

the keyboard

The "extended keys" are marked

I confirm this same issue with version 6x. I can assign kcalc to another key combination, such as META+k, but the calculator key on the Microsoft 4000 ergo keyboard can no longer be assigned to this or any other app.

Things are fixed on our end. The Qt patch needed will be included in 6.6.3 and 6.7.
