How do I disable Ctrl+A keybind?[SOLVED]

BunsenLabs 10.5 Lithium
When I have the terminal open, the Ctrl+A keybind hides it.
In ~/.config/openbox/bl-rc.xml I have commented the following keybind tags but I cant disable  Ctrl+A

<keybind key="C-A-Tab">
      <action name="NextWindow">
        <panels>yes</panels>
        <desktop>yes</desktop>
        <finalactions>
          <action name="Focus"/>
          <action name="Raise"/>
          <action name="Unshade"/>
        </finalactions>
      </action>
</keybind>
   
<keybind key="C-A-Left">
  <action name="GoToDesktop"><to>left</to><wrap>no</wrap></action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="C-A-Right">
  <action name="GoToDesktop"><to>right</to><wrap>no</wrap></action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="C-A-Up">
  <action name="GoToDesktop"><to>up</to><wrap>no</wrap></action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="C-A-Down">
  <action name="GoToDesktop"><to>down</to><wrap>no</wrap></action>
</keybind>

------- EDIT ------
My fault. I was so confused with terminal window behavior.
Johnraff was right. My terminal emulator, terminator, has the Ctrl+A keybind.
Thanks all for your replies

Could it be a keybind of your terminal emulator?

It isn't a keybind of terminal emulator. The same happens when I have open the file manager

Are you using emacs or tmux? Those can cause issues with keybinds.

The other issue may be xbindkeys. If that is enabled you can disable it and see if that fixes the problem.
