This either could be a bug or a lack of a feature, either way it is unintentionally inhibiting gameplay.

The problem occurred when I assigned the item slots to the Q, W, and E keys. However, these keys are also bound to quick communication alerts, so when I used an item, it also triggered a quick communication emote, such as a supply chest alert. I went into the settings to see if I missed the settings to re-assign the alerts, but lo and behold there are no settings to do so.

I'm not sure if this is a bug wherein what is supposed to happen is that the quick communication alert is no longer triggered if another action is bound to its key, or simply an oversight since there is no way to re-assign the quick communication alerts at all.
