I am trying to debug my ctrl+r. For some reasons my ctrl+r just doesn't work on any KDE colemak layouts, and ctrl+shift+r took over its functionality.
For examples, browser refresh, vim keymap, terminal shortcuts.
When in tty , using loadkeys mod-dh-ansi-us, ctrl+r works fine.
I tried killing processes, including plasmashell to test if a process is holding the key, but don't think it is related.
Therefore I want some help to test if it is a me issue, or a KDE bug.
I am just looking for an answer like yes, it's bugged , nope, works for me, because it is very niche to have arch -> plasma 6 -> colemak dh users.
Most likely I will have to figure the solution on my own, I am checking if this https://github.com/DreymaR/BigBagKbdTrixXKB will help, but don't really think so.
Thanks in advance.
Steps:
Go to System Settings -> Keyboard -> Layouts -> check Configure layouts -> Select any Colema-DH Variant -> Preview
With the preview, use ctrl+r to see if it works, it is the S key for qwerty. In my case, the r key wont work when ctrl is held.

or test with cat in terminal, test for ^R output.
or test with vim/neovim, ^R = redo.
Below are my settings:
System Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8

X11 Layout: us
X11 Model: pc104
X11 Variant: colemak_dh
setxkbmap -v 9
Setting verbose level to 9
locale is C

Success.
Applied rules from evdev:
