  Just a few guesses? Is Cmd-Opt-P defined anywhere? Or is the OS  
maybe not finding that shortcut and trying to find a best match?

  Have you perhaps changed the keyboard mapping? Show the keyboard  
layouts menu and see whether the flag is different than what you  
want. There's also a setting that causes the keyboard mapping to be  
picked anew for each text field, which can reset the mapping to  
something undesired.

  Finally, have you checked in the "Keyboard" system preference  
whether there's any shortcut defined there that may be the cause? You  
can redefine them there, globally or for a particular app.
