SUMMARY
Turning on "Alt is swapped with Win" swaps them for some shortcuts but not others 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Bind something to a combination involving Meta or Alt (app launcher on Alt+F1 or krunner on Win+D in my case)
2. Enable  "Alt is swapped with Win"

OBSERVED RESULT
krunner now opens when you press Alt+D instead of Meta+D, however, since the keys are swapped now, the shortcut still points to the same button.

EXPECTED RESULT
Shortcut continues to recognize the Win+D key sequence, however the Win key is now in the new location

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: NixOS Unstable

The app launcher works correctly after a reboot, however, other shortcuts such as krunner still don't work

This received a bunch of work on Plasma 5.24 after being semi-broken-ish for a while, and is finally fixed now.

Comment 3 contact 2022-04-08 07:43:46 UTC

This is fixed for most shortcuts, however, the application launcher still opens when you press the "alt" key, and not the "win" key

Comment 4 contact 2022-04-08 07:46:03 UTC

So looks like the "fix" just inverted the bug - before it the application launcher was the only thing that did work, now it's the only thing that doesn't.
