Why my KDE keyboard layout switcher shortcut doesn't work when Firefox is focused?

I'm using KDE Plasma 5.14.5 in Debian 10. I've set "Alt + Shift" (also tested some other combinations) as keyboard layout switcher shortcut. It works everywhere except when I'm in Firefox or Tor Browser (which is Firefox-based). I looked up for Firefox keyboard shortcuts and didn't find any conflicting shortcut.

Notes: - I've tried "Restart with Add-ons Disabled..." - I've tried changing "dom.keyboardevent.keypress.hack.dispatch_non_printable_keys" and "dom.keyboardevent.keypress.hack.use_legacy_keycode_and_charcode"

It's not Firefox specific. I have the problem in LibreOffice, too! I'll follow that in KDE communities.

Linux: Add Keyboard Shortcut to Switch App

First, install wmctrl.

wmctrl is a command line util to {switch, close, move, resize, set title, list, …} windows.

  1. install wmctrl

sudo apt-get install wmctrl

Example use:

   wmctrl -xa firefox → switch to the window class name that contains “firefox”. (use this to switch apps.
   wmctrl -a firefox → switch to the window whose name contains “firefox”
   wmctrl -c firefox → Close a window whose name contains “firefox”
   wmctrl -l → list all windows

Type xprop in terminal to find the name of a app's window class name. [see Linux: Commands Related to GUI Apps])

here's some popular app's window class name:

   Firefox
   google-chrome-stable → Google Chrome browser
   gnome-terminal
   emacs

Now, create a keyboard shortcut to the command.

In your Linux desktop {Gnome, KDE, Ubuntu, Xfce, …}, there's usually a keyboard setting tool in the control panel to set a key to execute command. Use that.
