Description irrlicht 2010-12-08 00:44:49 UTC 
Version:           1.3.1 (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                Linux

once you switch to "Konsole" tab you can't switch with alt+[a-z] to other tabs(just mouse works)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
fire up konversation > open at least one channel tab and one Konsole tab > switch to Konsole(mouse or shortcut) then try to switch to the previous tab by invoking alt+[a-z]

Actual Results:  
nothing happens

Expected Results:  
tab should be switched

This is basically a problem between Konsole kpart and host app: when a key combination is pressed ,who get it? Konsole kpart by default intercept the key combination and send into the terminal process(typically a shell), but host app can override that decision if it want.

One workaround is pressing Shift+Tab in the Konsole kpart. That would move the focus out of the Konsole kpart, then Alt+[a-z] shortcuts can be used to switch to other tabs as usual.
