Cannot detect Ctrl + Space keypress in Windows

[schollz]

Describe the bug Cannot detect Ctrl + Space keypress in Windows, instead it looks identical to pressing "Space".

Setup

• OS - Windows 11
• Shell - Windows Powershell
• Terminal Emulator - No emulator. Plain windows powershell
• Terminal Multiplexer - None

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Execute the source code below
2. Press Ctrl + Space
3. Read the prog.log file for logs

Source Code

Code

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"os"
	tea "github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea"
)

type model struct {
	header string
	content string
	keycnt int
	// Add any fields you need for your model
}

func (m model) Init() tea.Cmd {
	return nil
}

func (m model) Update(msg tea.Msg) (tea.Model, tea.Cmd) {
	m.keycnt++
	m.content = fmt.Sprintf("\n(Key %d)", m.keycnt)
	switch msg := msg.(type) {
	case tea.KeyMsg:
		m.content += fmt.Sprintf("msg = %v, typestr = %v, runes = %v, type = %d, paste=%v, alt=%v", 
			msg, msg.Type.String(), msg.Runes, msg.Type, msg.Paste, msg.Alt)

		log.Println(m.content)
		
		if msg.String() == "q" {
			return m, tea.Quit
		}
	}
	return m, nil
}

func (m model) View() string {
	return fmt.Sprintf("%s\n%s", m.header, m.content)
}

func main() {

	f,err := os.OpenFile("prog.log", os.O_RDWR|os.O_CREATE|os.O_APPEND, 0666)
	if err!= nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	log.SetOutput(f)

	p := tea.NewProgram(model{header: "Press Enter or Ctrl + M\n"})
	if _,err:=p.Run(); err != nil {
		fmt.Printf("Error starting program: %v", err)
	}
}

Expected behavior I should see Ctrl+space, or something different than just "space"

Screenshots

Space produces:

Ctrl+Space produces the same:
