Karabiner-Elements: shift+control+power not working

With the following configuration, shift+control (physically caps_lock)+power to lock screen does not work.

{
    "profiles": [
        {
            "name": "Default profile",
            "selected": true,
            "simple_modifications": {
                "right_option": "delete_forward",
                "caps_lock": "left_control"
            }
        }
    ]
}

I had activated from System Preferences -> Accessibility -> Zoom -> the “Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom” which allowed CTRL + Scroll to zoom screen. Not working anymore after yesterday’s update. I guess it is related to this.

The day before worked ok.

Found Karabiner-Elements-0.90.29.dmg in Trash, restored, installed it. Now it is fixed 😄

Please give some feedback on this. This issue is enormous. I understand you don’t owe us anything, rather we owe you; I know these issues are hard to solve, but it would be nice to know whether a solution is coming at all, or if there are currently no plans/possibilities for one.

I was cursing over sierra for removing this keyboard shortcut for the last two hours until I found this issue description.

Agreed, Ctrl+Shift+Eject still not putting my display to sleep when I press it on my Magic Keyboard (Sierra, Macbook Air 1.5 yrs old, Magic Keyboard 1 yr old).

shift+control+eject doesn’t work as well.

It is not working with any config, if there is an empty profile the problem is the same.

Still not working after a fix with shortcut handling

It’s finally fixed with 0.90.67!!!

Still not fixed, I cannot lock my Mac (Sierra last beta).

More issues:

non_us_backslash and grave_accent_and_tilde are swapped by default without any configuration. Workaround: use suggested configuration from README to swap them back 🙈
My custom shortcuts in BetterTouchTool with PgUp and PgDown do not work as well

Confirm zoom to work on 0.90.29 (direct .dmg link).
