SUMMARY
Shortcuts added in KMenuEdit for launching a program don't work.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open kmenuedit
2. select any program entry
3. go to advanced tab, assign a shortcut
4. click apply
5. press newly assigned shortcut

OBSERVED RESULT
nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
program launches

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20200414
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.14.1
Kernel Version: 5.6.2-1-default

ADDITIONAL INFO
I noticed that these shortcuts get added to "Global Shortcuts" in Systemsettings - Shortcuts - Global Shortcuts - Application launchers.

There is also a Systemsettings - Shortcuts - Own Shortcuts - KMenuEdit.
When manually adding shortcuts there, they work.

I have no idea what the difference between those two things is.

Also for some reason, the predefined shortcuts in "Global Shortcuts", like Meta-E for Dolphin, work, but none of the custom ones.
