Win and Ctrl Keys switched when pressing Ctrl + Shift + T, brings up citrix toolbar instead of e.g. reopening closed tab

 would like to use Ctrl + Shift + T inside citrix for example to reopen a closed tab, but instead Ctrl + Shift + T brings up the Desktop Viewer toolbar. This seems to be related to https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-workspace-app-for-linux/store-configuration#accessibility-support-for-enhanced-desktop-viewer-toolbar where they write:

Starting with the 2408 version, you can access the enhanced Desktop Viewer toolbar using the keyboard of your endpoint devices. With this feature, you can invoke the toolbar, navigate through the options, and select the required options using the keyboard shortcuts.

Use the following keyboard shortcuts to access the toolbar:

Win + Shift + t: Show the toolbar and move focus to the first button.

 

 

But instead of Win key, for me this happens with Ctrl key. Anyone has an idea what could be the issue and how to solve this?

Details:

  • Ubuntu 24.04 on wayland

  • using Citrix client for Linux version 2408

Same issue and this is very annoying that the app now hijacks the Ctrl-Shift-T shortcut that i use in many applications and now opens Citrix toolbar (which I don't want).

Rolling back Citix Workspace App from 2408 to 2405 restores the desired behaviour (Ctrl-Shift-T does NOT open Citrix toolbar on 2405, as desired).
