Problem
⌘-k does not clear the terminal as expected

Actual Shows message about chord and does not execute clear:

Notes
- (a) Disabling the Atom Keymap, (b) removing the
"atomKeymap.promptV3Features": true,from my settings, and © restarting VS Code fixes the problem, but of course, doing so leaves me without the Atom Keymapping. 😦 - related discussion (such that it was): https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/25059
