Intellij basic complete ctrl + space is not working on macOS

Question

I am running IntelliJ IDEA on my macOS Big Sur and ⌃ + space for basic complete does not seem to work. I looked under Preferences / Keymap / Code Completion / Basic, and it seems in order.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Found out that the OS itself has this already taken.

I disabled the shortcut on System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Input Sources -> Tick off "Select the previous input source" and it did the trick.
