Public bug reported: Currently after installing qterminal, its configuration settings are as follows: $TERM is "xterm-256color" and emulation type is "linux". This is a mismatch, as the key escape codes differ between the two (see output of "infocmp xterm-256color" vs. "infocmp linux").
As a result, the F1-F5 hotkeys will not work when starting a CLI program like byobu or mc in qterminal. I was advised by the qterminal maintainer that emulation type should be set to "default" initially, as only this one is in active development and the other emulation types will be eventually deprecated.
