Q: MAC app question: Interfering with Alfred text expansion?

Super slick app; loving it so far.
This question is for the Mac app, which I realize is in beta.
I just noticed that my keyboard shortcuts are blocked by Hedy. (I use Alfred app mainly for that.) For example, if I type 'mytel', then my telephone number doesn't get expanded to 415-867-5309.
Is there a workaround for this? I rely on this function quite heavily.

A: Thanks for the feedback! We aren't aware of the app blocking keyboard shortcuts, and can't replicate that in our testing. I just installed Alfred and was able to still bring up the shortcut menu (option + space). Shortcuts to other apps still seem to work as well. It sounds like you are possibly having issues once you start typing in Alfred?
