NoMachine NX 'p' key not working for Macbook Pro vs Fedora

My 'p' key is dead within a NX session. I'm on a Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and I'm NX'ing into a Fedora instance. I NX into other machines and don't have the same problem.

I've read plenty on dead keys and odd mappings but nothing relating to the 'p' key. I've checked the modifiers via xmodmap -pm on both machines, there's no mention of the 'p' key.

I've run out of ideas.. Anyone else come across this?

This is caused by the two keyboard short-cuts using the "Windows" alias "Super" key the 'p' and 'tab' keys works again if you remove those two short-cut in the (xfce) config.

I find I lose the 'p' key when I shift focus from osx to the nx session. Tapping any modifier key (ctrl, option, command...) recovers it. Completely repeatable. I've tried various ways of logging the key presses, but it's as if the 'p' key is not being detected at all.
