Bug Description

Regression
Fully repeatable

When using any of the Super+Left/Right/Up/Down commands the keyboard shortcut overlay activates. The commands function correctly and the windows adjust as desired. However, the keyboard shortcut overlay remains and must be Super key'd or ALT key'd away. Long press on Super will also remove it.

Long press on Super will activate on press and deactivate on release, as it should.

**All "Super" key shortcuts work as desired.**
**Super+Tab functions correctly and changes programs as it should. **
**Super+Left/Right/Up/Down function correctly.**

Not a dup of #963470 as Tab Switching functions correctly.
Not a dup of #932338 as Workspace Switching functions correctly.
