its a qt(nokia) problem: https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-953
I would keep this issue opened and to be checked when Qt has a fix for it. If you are reading this and have an account on the Qt bug tracker, please vote for the bug ;)
or rather: vote against it ;-)
Voted!
A bug (now marked duplicate) has some details: #11577: [Mac] Font for directional keys broken when entered
The number may not appear, but does that prevent the shortcut from functioning?
updating URL: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-953
If I read it correctly, it's fixed in Qt 5.2 (when that gets released)
Also see #11966: Can't use numpad asterisk in keyboard shortcuts.
Should be fixed since quite a while, 2.0 uses Qt 5.4, and I can't reproduce in 2.1
Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
