VS Code has wrong keyboard shortcut layout

I'm using a US keyboard for coding. But my VS Code installation is using a different shortcut layout. How can I switch to US keyboard shortcuts?

I had the same issue as I code with DVORAK keyboard layout and setting "keyboard.dispatch": "keyCode" in VS Code solved my issue.

Yes, turned out this page had the answer:

https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/Keybinding-Issues#troubleshoot-linux-keybindings

Specifically, running

setxkbmap -layout us

solved my problem.
