Keyboard shortcuts not responsive to a change in keyboard layout

[michaelmrose]

Expected behavior

Control + alt + t is bound by default in Mint Mate 22 to open a terminal window. This works as expected in the en-us layout. When the user switches to dvorak with the integrated applet pressing control + alt + t (in the new position of t) should actuate the shortcut.

Strangely running running setxkbmap -layout us -variant dvorak actually works as expected.

Actual behaviour

One can still actuate the effect only by pressing the same physical key one presses for "t" as in the en-us layout

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Boot up Mint 22, log into Mate, add a secondary layout, note that there is an applet in the panel which one can click to cycle through available layouts. Note that control + alt + t in the en-us layout continues to open a terminal regardless of chosen layout
