            Bug ID: 405616
           Summary: having french layout breaks alt-2 and alt-7 shortcuts
                    in firefox
           Product: kxkb
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: foormea at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

When I add French layout to KDE Plasma in
   System Settings
      Input Devices
         Keyboard Hardware and Layout
my shortcuts alt-2 and alt-7 get broken (e.g. they don't respond in firefox),
while all other alt- shortcuts continue working just fine.

If I re-assign alt-2 and alt-7 to whatever random global shortcut and
immediately unassign, alt-2 and alt-7 restart working.
If I then put the computer to sleep, then get out of sleep mode, the shortcuts
are broken again.

Some xev output:

For alt-1 (which works just fine):

---------




STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. This is Kubuntu 19.04 up-to-date (2019-03-18) after narrowing down the
problem to kxdb.
2. System Settings > Input Devices > Keyboard Hardware and Layout > Layouts >
Configure layouts ; first is US qwerty, second if standard FR azerty.
3. As soon as I press "Apply" if FR azerty is present (I've tried a few
variations for FR and got the same result), the problem appears.

OBSERVED RESULT
alt-2 and alt-7 specifically get broken in firefox

EXPECTED RESULT
no alt- shortcut gets broken

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Kubuntu 19.04
