Bug#851189: keyboard-configuration: ALT+Cursor-Left switches consoles instead of working on app in focus
Hi again. In short I kind of just copied that post blindly and only now looked into things further.

I did just try this myself and you're right, this didn't trigger it. Which got me to think more of what could have and I did recently build wine in an ubuntu chroot which is a plausible cause, I think?
