in shortcuts like Meta + s it's working, so it' not a hardware-issue.
it works also when I type it in a vm using virtualbox.

any idea on what to look for?

Not working anymore in what application, or just when typing a text in general?


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

it's not working when typing text (everywhere for example search, text-editor or Webbrowser except virtualbox)

That still sounds like a hardware problem, using i in shortcuts you tend to hold the key differently compared to typing. Cleaning the keyboard is a first step IMHO. I have that problem quite often, but then I have cats...

I can 100% verify that the key works on every vm using virtualbox. but outside the vm it only works with shortcuts.
for me that feels like the key is setup somehwere as a shortcut or something, but I don't see it in shortcuts.

alright.. I didn't find any entry using "s" searching in settings or in the files themselfs.. still deleting them and restarting did fix the issue:
~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc
~/.config/khotkeysrc
