Since there seem to be problems with defining keyboard shortcuts in KDE4, I
recommend to just use good old "xbindkeys".

In your case you could just create a file ~/.xbindkeys and write the following
into it:

"konsole"
 Control + o

Then call xbindkeys (which you can of course automatically start when you
login) and the shortcut will work. Make sure that the keyboard shortcuts you
define are not bound by some other program. I also recommend reading the
xbindkeys manpage.

Patrick.
