special charicter for add-on shortcuts

I want to set a keyword shortcut using special characters. Here's an example command+option+\. I've tried adding the shortcut for activating 1password. However, when I try to add it, I get the error message "Type a letter". This exact same shortcut was working before I had updated the app.
