When I press cmd+option+\ it plays the 'funk' error in Safari, like it detects a wrong keypress..

It has been doing this consistently for the past few weeks. I tried reinstalling the extension but that didn't work. For some reason it doesn't seem to recognise that the shortcut is an existing one and doing something.

    cmd+opt+\
    is a keyboard shortcut under in System Preferences Keyboard - Shortcuts- Accessibilty- zoom

    could it be that you have this activated in System Preferences
    and you are using the same shortcut to fill with 1Password

    that could create a conflit, can it ?

    Hi @joostgadellaa,

    If you're running Alfred, this hotkey can interfere with the Option-Command-\ keyboard shortcut that 1Password also uses (by default):

    Changing/disabling either that Alfred hotkey or 1Password shortcut would stop Option-Command-\ from triggering the system beep. And if it's not Alfred, there's probably a similar clash between Option-Command-\ in some other app and 1Password.

    Hopefully that helps you figure out what's causing this and stopping it from happening.

    You're welcome, @joostgadellaa. Glad you determined it was that elusive Alfred hotkey provoking the problem. :+1::chuffed:
