I tried Wayland and it has the same issue.
Latin layout (EN, US) goes first in the list.
I rebooted to make sure it's a fresh Wayland session and the problem still
there.
I tried changing Switching policy in input settings to desktop, application and
window and it didn't help

But it works just fine in other desktop enviroments on the same laptop ( I have
had this problem on multiple laptops and multiple distros as I said) and it
affects kde apps like kate too.
just to be sure, I just tried it in linux mint cinnamon edition and it works
just fine.

[plasmashell] [Bug 445105] New: Some shortcuts doesn't work when using Arabic keyboard layout.

Bug ID: 445105
   Summary: Some shortcuts doesn't work when using Arabic keyboard
layout.
   Product: plasmashell
   Version: 5.23.2
  Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: NOR
 Component: Input Method
  Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Reporter: w853...@gmail.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
When switching my keyboard layout to Arabic, some shortcuts don't work.
For example: Ctrl+B for making text bold doesn't work in Libreoffice writer and
in WPS writer and the same shortcut for setting a bookmark in Kate doesn't
work.
CTRL+[ and CTRL+] for making font size bigger or smaller in in Libreoffice
writer and in WPS writer don't work too. some shortcuts work like Ctrl+U to
underline a text and CTRL+I to make it italic
I had this problem for 2 years maybe and in multiple distros like KDE neon and
Arch and Manjaro on 2 different laptops, sometimes after fresh install so I
don't think it's a configuration problem. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open system settings
2. Add Arabic keyboard layout 
3. try some shortcuts like Ctrl+b and Ctrl+] in different software.

OBSERVED RESULT
some shortcuts don't work when using Arabic layout.

EXPECTED RESULT
shortcuts should work when using Arabic layout.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS:
Operating System: EndeavourOS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.87.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.14.16-arch1-1 (64-bit)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
I tried Russian and Hebrew keyboard layouts now and it seems to be working just
fine. I am not sure about other keyboard layouts.
