            Bug ID: 422538
           Summary: alt+` shortcut stops working when "acute dead" layout
                    is first/only keyboard layout
           Product: kxkb
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: tim.banchi at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
as soon as the first (topmost) keyboard layout has the acute key (`) configured
as "dead" (e.g. US-intl, with dead keys, or German with acute dead), this task
switcher function stops working. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. ubuntu 20.04 with kubuntu-desktop packages installed. 
2. set first keyboard layout to a layout with acute dead (e.g. US-intl, with
dead keys)

OBSERVED RESULT
Alt+` (switch between windows of same application) stops working

EXPECTED RESULT
Alt+` should continue working (e.g. like with a non-dead key keyboard) 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: ubuntu 20.04 64b
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.12.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I think this is KDE specific, same installation on same computer, switching to
Gnome, and no problem. Over time, I also used different DE/distributions on
different computers, and I only have this problem when coming back to KDE.
