--- Comment #1 from cwo <cwo.kde at posteo.net> ---
Thank you for the bug report!

This is one of the special keyboard shortcuts that is not set through Plasma's
keyboard shortcuts directly, but by the xkb system lower in the stack.
Configuration here is unfortunately a little unintuitive; you need to go to
System Settings -> Keyboard, then the "Key Bindings" tab (or in Plasma 6.2
page). In the tree view, you should find "Switching to another Layout", and one
of the options there should be Ctrl + Space. Uncheck that box, and the shortcut
should be unbound.

In principle, this definitely should be listed in the Keyboard Shortcuts
configuration somehow, and I'm moving this there. As it works completely
differently from the other shortcuts, it would need some unfortunate
special-casing.
