The problem is that the browser is eating the events for those keystrokes, so the solution is to force focus to the toolbar when the text box receives focus.

To fix it add this line to your toolbar’s constructor:

yourTextBox.GotFocus += (sender, args) => OnGotFocus(args);

Also make sure you have implemented TranslateAcceleratorIO() per this example.
