Steps to reproduce

I have a Lenovo ThinkBook 16p. This one has 2 parenthesis (open/close) keys over the numeric keypad. Having that in mind (perhaps it matters), i have assigned CTRL+ ) (which was translated to CTRL+SHIFT + 0) to Media->Next track.

Whenever i press this combination with the key in the numeric keypad [ Right CTRL + ) ], after i release them the CTRL key seems to remain pressed, so whenever i click any other key, (p for instance), the laptop acts as if i had pressed CTRL + the key (CTRL+p in this case, which usually opens the Print dialog).

Pressing the two CTRL keys simultaneously causes CTRL to unstuck.
