Description kdebugs8 2025-07-15 18:52:49 UTC 
SUMMARY
So shortcut keys Meta+Å and Meta+¨ are not working after a reboot. Also when setting up scripts to launch from the shortcuts it made an error that needed a reboot to be fixed. Sometimes it puts the wrong script with Ä and Ö in those.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make shortcut keys with Meta+Å and Meta+¨ have custom scripts to be launched from those.
2. See that after a reboot Meta+Å and Meta+¨ doesn't work needing to be set again for those to work till next reboot. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Meta+Å and Meta+¨ shortcut keys stop working after reboot.
Sometimes pushes Ä script to be Ö script etc.
EXPECTED RESULT
Working shortcut keys even after a reboot. No buggy behaviour with setting up custom scripts.

Noticed that when i save the kglobalshortcutsrc file without any modifications the hotkeys start to work again.

Ok. I think i now noticed that it's only the ¨ key that does not work. It gives a weird looking symbol as well.

I'm experiencing widespread breakage of shortcuts in the most recent versions of Plasma in Fedora Kinoite. Shortcuts like Ctrl+Meta+Alt+Shift+F just read as F. I'm wondering whether it's related to this.
