PyCharm changes keyboard layout for shortcuts under Manjaro


i am using PyCharm under Manjaro Linux. I have two languge bindings, german and english (which i use for coding and work). If i want to execute a short cut in PyCharm (e.g. ctrl+z for undo), it executes ctrl+y, so PyCharm switches to the german layout even though it stays in the english layout for the normal coding part. If i press y in the editor, a y is inserted. How do i circumvent that, so that i can press ctrl+z and it executes undo.
