SUMMARY
When I have Split view in Dolphin and want to copy one file to other split with keyboard, confirming to override file doesn't work when you press Enter.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. Click "Split" button and select directory on the split you want to copy from
3. Select file you want to copy (this file has the same name as the file in other split), press Shift+F5 to copy the fie
4. The "File already exists" modal will appear
5. Press Tab twice to select "Override" button
6. Press Enter to confirm.
7. The modal is closed.

OBSERVED RESULT

The "File already exists" modal is closed and copying didn't start


EXPECTED RESULT

Copying started.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

When you press Space instead of Enter in step 6 then it works. I use it as a workaround, the fact that the Enter just closes the popup and copying was not started was unexpected for me.
