Unable to turn caps lock on or off

Reported by huanghua...@gmail.com, Jan 1

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 11151.59.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/71.0.3578.94 Safari/537.36
Platform: 11151.59.0 (Official Build) stable-channel banon

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Since I upgraded my version of Acer Chromebook 15 (CB3-532) from 70.0 to 71.0,
2. I was unable to turn Caps Lock on/off with the composite key combination of "ALT+Search Key".
3. I hope that you will pay attention to this bug and fix it as soon as possible. Thank you!

What is the expected behavior?
I want to restore the "ALT+Search Key" to turn on or off the composite key combination of caps lock.

What went wrong?
After the system update and upgrade, the key is out of order.

Did this work before? N/A

Greetings,

Same issue here. Since last update, upon startup, Caps Lock combination (Alt+Search) will work only once. After that it will neither turn the Caps Lock off or back on. Each time the user must reconfigure keyboard in order to switch form 'Search? to the more traditional 'Caps Lock' function, but then the usefulness of the 'Search' command is lost unless one sacrifices another key in an already limited keyboard.

First time this happens since acquiring my Chromebook in September 2017. It must certainly be linked to this recent update.

Thanks for your excellent service.

Best regards,
This is possibly a dupe of the issue that I opened last month. And I have repro steps on how I can break cap lock.
