Kde Konsole swallows Shift-Left and Shift-Right

I'm running emacs -nw in console mode inside the KDE konsole terminal emulator. In Emacs I have defines Shift-Left and Shift-Right from the windmove package to jump horizontally between buffers.
The problem I see is that konsole seems to swallow the Shift-Left and Shift-Right keys. The Shift-Up and Shift-Down keys are working. I read the keys received by Emacs with Ctrl-h l and can see that no keys are received for Shift-Left and Shift-Right however I get keys for Shift-Up and Shift-Down.
On the other hand I can run Emacs inside xterm as well es Emacs inside gnome-terminal and receive the right keycodes for Shift-Left and Shift-Right:
ESC [ 1 ; 2 C [windmove-right]
ESC [ 1 ; 2 D [windmove-left]
It seems like KDE Konsole is handling the Shift-Left and Shieft-Right keycombinations itself and is not forwarding them.
I went into Settings->Edit-CurrentProfile->Keyboard and edit the "Default (XFree 4)" profile. However defining Shift-Left and Shift-Right there doesnt take effect:
Right+Shift E[1;*C
Left+Shift E[1;*D
and test in the "Input" dialog then it seems to yield the right output:
However if I apply the settings and enter Emacs again I don't receive any characters for Shift-Left and Shift-Right. I also tried adding -AppScreen and +AppScreen but same result.
On the other hand I can see the mapping for Shift+Up and Shift+Down in the "Default (XFree 4)" profile:
Up+Shift ScrollLineUp
Down+Shift ScrollLineDown
These Keycodes reach Emacs in the form of:
ESC [ 1 ; 2 A [windmove-up]
ESC [ 1 ; 2 B [windmove-down]
Does anyone know why Shift-Left and Shift-Right are handled specially and howto get them work?
