Running TW snapshot 20221201 with Gnome shell.
virt-viewer-11.0-4.1.x86_64
gnome-shell-43.1-1.1.x86_64

Since several months I noticed that several keyboard shortcuts don't work in a
virt-viewer session. Tested with guests in Proxmox VE and locally in
virt-manager.

In a xorg gnome session they do work in the guests virt-viewer session.
It doesn���t matter if the guests run wayland or xorg session, both work as long
as xorg session on the host is used.

I haven't tested all combinations but here are the tests I did so far:

Xorg: what works inside guest virt-viewer session:
super key
super key + TAB
ALT + `
ALT + TAB
CTRL + F
CTRL + C
CTRL + V

Wayland: what works, all other keys from above list don't work:
CTRL + F
CTRL + C
CTRL + V

I already have reset my shortcut keys.

Please advise what extra info is needed or what test I could run.
As the issue only seems to present itself in gnome wayland I reported in
category gnome.
