Discovered the problem while trying to use Neovim, but it happens anywhere in WSL.
Repro Steps
Pressing CTRL-] using BR keyboard layout results in "^\". Pressing ']' key without CTRL works properly, but it CTRL is pressed it thinks I am pressing '', which is the key that should be in that place if I used a US layout.
Expected Behavior
CTRL - ] should give me ^]
Actual Behavior
CTRL - ] gives me ^\

Basically, I believe it is considering the US layout instead of the BR layout when trying to use shortcuts that require 2 or more keys.
Thank you @LuisHDantas. Is this in a terminal app, or in a GUI app that you see this ?

I have not tried a GUI app, but I can say that it happens anywhere in the terminal (Neovim, or just the command line). I have tested with "showkey -a" and it gives me the wrong output that I mentioned above as well.
Ok thank you. In this case this means that the issue comes from your terminal. If you're using Windows Terminal, I'd recommend opening an issue there.
Closing since the issue isn't coming from WSL.
