Quoting upstream:

> To fix the problem without these patches edit ~/.config/solaar/config.yaml file to remove string keys in the divert-keys setting. Alternatively remove the entire divert keys setting. Alternatively remove the entire file. In the first two cases the user may have to redo the divert-keys setting. In the last case the user will have to redo all their settings.

I’ve updated the package in Debian but I’m not familiar with the process to get the fixes into Ubuntu 22.10.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package solaar - 1.1.5+dfsg-2
