Bug ID: 492726
Summary: Shift key on neo layout not handled correctly
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 6.1.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_keyboard
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Hello I hope I am in the right place here:
With my neo keyboard layout keyboard shortcuts terminate when hitting the Shift
key.
The key event is "Shift+Caps_Lock" in Qt library and propagates to application
shortcuts which cannot be used correctly (see
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/8285).
I am reporting here because it did work in Plasma 5 and also works in SwayWM
with Qt6.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select neo2 keyboard layout
2. Assign a keyboard shortcut with shift key
3. Shortcut cannot be triggered
OBSERVED RESULT
Keyboard shortcut stops parsing after hitting shift key.
EXPECTED RESULT
Keyboard shortcuts with shift keys should be correctly reported to
applications.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: Arch Linux
Keyboard layout: neo2
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma 6.1/Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Some key event outputs

```
And the out of wev:
Interestingly it reports Caps_Lock on key down but Shift_L on key up. When I
press the actual Caps Lock key it is correctly detected as ISO_Level3_Shift
up/down.
