Inspect your path with the node tool: 'Ctrl-K' just combines paths (i.e. former separate paths turn into sub-paths but are not joined at the start/end nodes). Besides that, the main problem was a duplicate path segment at the bottom with reversed path direction which caused the unexpected results of 'Path > Outset'. In the attached drawing I moved the different sub-paths of the original path to make them visible and numbered the nodes (in path direction).
