Shortcut Keys problem with "option" key on mac

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone had the same issue: On the mac version, when I assign a new key for the "Previous Word Start" command and set it to "option+left arrow" SQL Developer interprets it as a double option+left arrow (shown on the following screenshot):

However, when I quit the application and relaunch then the shortcut entry changes to a single option key + left arrow (check following screenshot) and then the application no longer responds to the shortcut.

Thanks in advance.
