Adding more info.

Verified and reproduced on: 3.4.3, 3.4.4, 3.5.0.beta1 and 3.5.0.beta2.
Mac OS X specific.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Writer.
2. Change language to Russian.
3. Press Cmd+B to change font weight to bold.

Error: Font weight does not get changed. System error sound is played instead.

Expected: Font weight changed to bold.

Note that some other system hotkeys work as expected. I.e. Cmd+S to save, or Cmd+O to open document still work regardless of input language. Other critical key combinations that don't work: Cmd+I, Cmd+U and so on, all text manipulation hotkeys are English-only. One may assume that hotkeys don't work correctly in text area, but do work for UI.

Workaround 1: Click toolbar button to apply corresponding style.
Workaround 2: Change language to English, press desired hotkey, then switch language back to russian.

The issue is critical, as it make text editor very slow for keyboard-only typing.
