right. well, that's what I would expect it should do.
hmmmm. it should be smart enough to pass it through to application, even if
it has been snaffled in the jkm file by the generic "HSCAssignHotSpot" entry
for the keystroke. I have one like that here with alt+Top row number 4, and
it faithfully passes the keystroke directly through to the sonar app and
pulls up event view, when my pantheon reverb set isn't loaded. that's what
it ought to do. so if it isn't doing that, then there's a bug or something
wrong going on here for you.
as a work-around, in your main set where you want it to pass through to the
application, you could just define a dummy hotspot for your alt+d key, and
choose action number 31, passKeyToTheApplication, when asked what type of
action you want it to perform. that might force it to do what you want. but,
as I say, it should be smart enough to be doing that already. it does it
here for me. I wonder whether it's the particular key you've chosen that's
interfering with that logic somehow.

says"Alt+D, not assigned in the currently active set". Then it tells you all
of the other sets that it is assigned in.  Alt+D is assigned in 5 other
sets, but not in the main set.
