I have a strange issue where Ctrl-O isn't picked up by any running apps. This issue is universal across apps, but doesn't appear in Gnome or the Plasma Wayland session, so it's unique to Plasma-X11. Checking the shortcuts settings, Ctrl-O is bound to Open under Common Actions>File. Unbinding it does not resolve the issue.

Running `showkey -a`, other Ctrl+letter shortcuts are shown, but not Ctrl-O (Ctrl-Shift-O registers as Ctrl-O but doesn't trigger any actions in apps). It does show correctly in a bare tty.

Here's the `xev` output for Ctrl-P:

It seems Plasma is intercepting the event, but it shouldn't be. Would appreciate help troubleshooting this issue.

Distro: EndeavourOS
Plasma version: 5.23.5
Frameworks: 5.90.0
Qt: 5.15.2
Kernel: 5.16.5-arch1-g14-1 (different kernel doesn't resolve the issue)

Resolved: the issue was fixed by binding the shortcut to a different, random action, and then removing that keybind. That's a frustrating fix but it does work.

edit: It seems to temporarily resolve the issue but then it comes back? I will continue to investigate.
