            Bug ID: 375858
           Summary: kglobalaccel incorrectly grabs keys
           Product: frameworks-kglobalaccel
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: mgraess...@kde.org
          Reporter: henry.hu...@gmail.com
                CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

To use Win+Left/Right to adjust volume, I have this in .Xmodmap:

keysym Left = Left Left Left XF86AudioLowerVolume
keysym Right = Right Right Right XF86AudioRaiseVolume

However, with this setting, kglobalaccel grabs all the combinations of
modifiers with the left key. This prevents using the left/right key for normal
text input.
I understand that you want volume keys to work with any modifier, but
kglobalaccel should only grab combinations of modifiers which includes the
original modifier, i.e., you should only grab meta + left + (other modifiers).

A workaround is just specifying Meta+Left/Right in Shortcuts setting, but this
does not work across desktop environments.
