    Fn+F4 key autorepeats for a single short press

    Hi

    I am on Kubuntu 22.04 currently, on a Lenovo Thinkpad E14 Gen-2 (AMD), using X11.

    I have been facing a strange problem since 20,04 (ever since I got Kubuntu installed on this laptop).

    Lenovo Thinkpad E14 has the media/brightness controls on the F1-F12 keys by default and the F* functions
    are selected when the Fn (Function) key together with the F* key are pressed.

    The issue is the Fn+F* keys when pressed together for a single short press always behave as in autorepeat. See the video link
    showing the case with Fn+F4 (this shows/hides the terminal in Dolphin file manager):

    (sorry, I am not allowed to post external links and not allowed to upload video)

    The issue doesn't go away until I disable keyboard autorepeat in KDE Plasma Settings or from the command line do: xset -r

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Thanks
