Is this the key release? The state indicates a pressed Mode_switch.

The output for AltGr + Q is:
KeyPress event, serial 125, synthetic NO, window 0x200001,
    root 0x2e, subw 0x200002, time 1259310, (52,20), root:(54,22),
    state 0x0, keycode 113 (keysym 0xff7e, Mode_switch), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

KeyPress event, serial 125, synthetic NO, window 0x200001,
    root 0x2e, subw 0x200002, time 1259430, (52,20), root:(54,22),
    state 0x2000, keycode 24 (keysym 0x40, at), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 characters:  "@"

KeyRelease event, serial 125, synthetic NO, window 0x200001,
    root 0x2e, subw 0x200002, time 1259511, (52,20), root:(54,22),
    state 0x2000, keycode 24 (keysym 0x40, at), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 characters:  "@"

KeyRelease event, serial 125, synthetic NO, window 0x200001,
    root 0x2e, subw 0x200002, time 1259581, (52,20), root:(54,22),
