Seems like it's used to switch keyboard layouts.

$ gsettings list-recursively | grep '<Super>space'
org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source ['<Super>space']
org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source-backward ['<Shift><Super>space']

Changing or unsetting that shortcut doesn't seem to fix the issue though.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is anyone considereing just to use <super> instead of <super><space> in Isis?

Julien, it looks like for some reason you have to set the shortcut again to get the slingshot one to start working again.

opensas, setting the shortcut to just super doesn't work.

We tried the following:

switch-input-source=['<Control><Shift>']
switch-input-source-backward=['<Control><Super><Shift>']

But it made gnome-settings-daemon crash so we just set them to blank, for now at least
