I managed to trace this one down a little bit further. I was able to activate debug output of KAccel and got the following lines:

kdecore (KAccel): KAccelPrivate::eventFilter( AccelOverride ): this = 0x80cf158, key = Asterisk
kdecore (KAccel): shortcut found!

At application startup I found that a shortcut is registered:

kdecore (KAccel): KAccelBase::insertConnection( 0x80f31e8="next_session"; shortcut = Shift+Right )  this = 0x80cf180
kdecore (KAccel): KAccelPrivate::connectKey( "next_session", Shift+Asterisk = 0x20002a ): id = -14 m_pObjSlot = 0x80eec38

The first line is the result of a direct call in konsole.cpp which is done to register a shortcut for Shift+Right. KAccelBase::insertConnection() seems to do some internal magic, that modifies the key combination to be Shift-Asterisk. I have looked into KAccelBase::insertConnection() but I was not figure out yet, what is causing this change of key-combination.
