I had a theory but Im not going to mention it just yet. Check out this link,
specifically the text beneath Section
"18.3.6.1. Keyboard"
http://www.grandicki.net/o_reilly___cd_bookshelf/weblinux2/lian/ch18_03.htm
It talks about setting the ISO 9995 alternative group keyboard layout, and
the key used to enter it. If this is what you are entering, you can use the
Kde Control Centre to find the key combination to enter the mode, and
hopefully the combination to exit it.
Info on ISO9995 can be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_9995
Also, can you tell us the make of the Keyboard?
