After updating from KDE3.5 to KDE4.3.1 I can not get my Hotkeys to work.
For example the following the following two Hotkeys
1) I want the <PrintScreen> button to start ksnapshot and I activated the 
Printscreen action in System Settings -> Input Actions -> Preset Action -> 
Printscreen.
2) I want to start dolphin when I press Win+E, and have defined an action in 
System Settings -> Input Actions -> DJ -> Dolphin when pressing Win+E

But non of these works. Nothings happens when I press the keys.

Here is some output from xev when pressing PrintScreen and then Win+E
