I see no C-M-SPC or C-M-@ anywhere in sight (assuming you show all of
the relevant parts of the *Help* buffer).  Which probably means Emacs
didn't receive those keys, and that explains why it doesn't work for
you.

So I think this is indeed something with your keyboard configuration.

If you undo that swapping, does the problem go away?
