After Laptop sleep/resume, Ctrl-Z and Ctrl-Y are swapped until IDEA restart
I'm using IDEA, CLion, WebStorm, and PyCharm (mostly IDEA) on Arch Linux with XFCE desktop and german keyboard layout (QWERTZ).
I recently noticed that after sleep and resume, Ctrl-Z and Ctrl-Y are swapped until IDE restart. At least IDEA and CLion are affected, haven't tested the other ones yet. Typing in z and y without Ctrl work as expected. I've also did a crosscheck with a few other programs (Geany, Firefox, Chromium, Thunderbird, SQuirreL SQL Client, ...) and none of them showed this behavior. Note: SQuirreL is also a Java application.
Before opening a bug, I would like to check if it can be solved via settings.
I've already checked if https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25509853/intellij-confuses-y-and-z applies, but it does not look so: 1) I'm not using KDE and 2) I have only "German" keyboard layout on my keyboard settings, no second option for switching.
Any ideas ?

Do you have Use national layout for shortcuts option enabled in Keymap settings? Does it help to toggle this option when issue happens?
It was off, switched it to on, looks like it helped. But I'd like to watch it for a while before I can say it's solved, as I also noticed that it does not happen always.
Thanks for the hint.
