[SOLVED] Symbol in password adds always a space after it

Hardware Password Manager
1

I am trying to set a password for an account in the hardware password manager but I got stuck on one issue that I couldn’t find any reference about.

I have a password that contains the symbol ^ (automatically generated). In the OnlyKey (the one with six buttons) I have set up the Finnish keyboard. Trying to write down the password, as many times as I have tried, after the symbol ^ there is always a space that I haven’t added. The same issue happens when trying to use the Swedish keyboard which is pretty much the same as the Finnish one.

Of course I could change the password to not contain that symbol (after other symbols it is not happening), but I would rather not have to worry about what symbols I am using in the OnlyKey.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

OK, I’ll reply myself, I found the issue.
It was on my end and not the OnlyKey, my configuration for the keyboard was wrong, which I didn’t notice because it was a clean and new installation of Linux that I haven’t used enough.

Fixing the keyboard layout, now OnlyKey provides the characters as needed.
