[SOLVED] Konsole: Ctrl+D creates a new tab instead of ending session

This is a repost from this post on the KDE forums.

For some unknown reason, pressing Ctrl+D will create a new tab instead of ending the session. This also means I can't exit out of other programs such as "showkey -a" etc.
If I try to bind Ctrl+D to anything, including "New Tab", it says the shortcut is ambiguous when I try to use it, but Ctrl+D isn't bound to anything according to the "Configure Keyboard Shortcuts" menu.
Ctrl+Shift+W still works as intended, but as mentioned I can't rebind it to Ctrl+D.
This happens regardless whether I'm on my local shell (zsh) or remote shell (ssh).

Any ideas?

Ctrl+Shift+D works and seems to send the exact same signal as Ctrl+D is supposed to. See this output:

$ showkey -a

Press any keys - Ctrl-D will terminate this program

^D        4 0004 0x04

For me it is CTRL + C which is opening a new tab whereas CTRL + D is working just fine.

I found a solution for my problem. For an unknown reason there was a shortcut defined to use a new profile. After I removed the shortcut under Settings > Manage profiles and restarted konsole CTRL + C works like expected.
