First check Kde Control Center -> Accessibility -> Keyboard Layout -> XKB 
Alternatives (if that's the name of the tab -- I'm translating back from a 
Swedish KDE installation). You may have picked alt+shift as the combination 
that changes your keyboard layout. If you haven't, look for alt+shift 
combinations in  Kde Control Center -> Accessibility -> Keyboard Shortcuts.
