Emacs 29.4, Windows 11 Pro — Ctrl is lost #113

Description

@ath

The undo command in Emacs is C-_ — meaning to press Control and the underscore at the same time. In Neo terms this means: Ctrl+Caps+v (where v would be labeled "w" on a qwerty/qwertz keyboard).

But this only types an underscore.
Emacs also has a testing tool via C-h k (first pressing Ctrl+h then release all keys and now press k). This activates the listener for key combinations. I try my inputs there and see that only the underscore arrives. It has no problems detecting Alt+_.

Any ideas why this might happen? At what point is the Ctrl key consumed?
