With me the problem is that it doesn't really react on the shortcuts. I
often have to press them a few times, before it works.
This is in Kile, but not in Kate.

I ran Kile 1.6 on my (standard) SUSE 9.0 machine (ftp-installation),
running KDE 3.1.4.

When I had this problem on my Debian box it was gone after upgrading to
the 2.6-test series kernel and around the same time I upgraded KDE to
KDE 3.2 alpha. Not much help in pinpointing the problem I'm affraid.

Some more things...
When I use the Edit menu to select the row-selection it works nice.
If dynamic word-wrap is switched on it works, but looks rather funny (as
lines get wrapped to the next line, and selections sometimes too).

Anyway, I hope this helps...
