Both - I'm currently on Wayland, but before switching last week (when Arch adopted KDE6), I've had the same issue on X11

Sorry, I've realized after booting PC from a liveUSB that ctrl key isn't working neither - most likely a hardware problem (keyboard) than anything related to KDE. I've closed it.
