Based on my research of this, it seems the reason is because before
Oneiric the Gnome2 default of mapping ctrl-space to the "trigger" action
would catch the key before it got to Lifrea, resulting in the item being
triggered just as if it was double-clicked.

With the removal of Gnome by default in Oneiric the ctrl-space is
instead passed through to Liferea, and Liferea is handling it has been
designed for years -- skimming through unread items.

Unfortunately even upgrading to Gnome3 is not going to help with this,
because ibus in Gnome3 now traps ctrl-space for another function
(enable/disable input editor).

So, I think you are stuck with this behavior.

Title:
  ctrl-space doesn't work for opening in browser

Status in “liferea” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After upgrading to Oneiric, ctrl-space no longer seems to open the
  item in the browser. I can double-click the icon, or select the 'open
  in browser' menu item, but ctrl-space just pages through items, just
  as if I were pressing space on its own.
