I have not observed this issue again, neither with nor without xinput2.
Therefore the issue can be closed.

On Emacs 29 German Umlauts with the control (strg key) modifier are
decoded incorrectly on X11. When pressing C-=C3=A4 I get the message "C-' is
undefined", similarly when pressing C-=C3=B6 I get "C-; is undefined". Also
when binding commands to C-=C3=A4/C-=C3=B6, the commands are not executed d=
ue to
the incorrect decoding. In contrast M-=C3=A4/M-=C3=B6 works correctly, so t=
he
problem seems to be specific for the control key. Using C-=C3=A4/C-=C3=B6 w=
orked
correctly on Emacs 27 and 28.
