adding from debian BTS #131562 here, since it touches the same subject:

If one has selected the "Mac Default" keybinding for KDE applications,
there is no apparent way to transmit an XON (Ctrl-Q) character through a
konsole terminal.  Nonetheless, one can transmit XOFF (Ctrl-S), thus
suspending output from the terminal program with no way to restore it.
As far as I can tell, this forces one to abandon whatever one is doing
in the terminal.

One fix would be to add XON/XOFF to the "Session->Send Signal" submenu.

This might be considered a bug with the keybinding, since it steals
standard terminal control characters for application control.  Arguably
it would be more Mac-like to use Alt rather than Ctrl for application
commands anyway:  the Mac itself does not use Ctrl for this purpose,
reserving Ctrl for terminal control.  Please feel free to reassign this
bug to kdebase (or wherever) if you consider this a stronger case.
