I use also WindowMaker and I encountered this error too.
If I can rememer correctly, I solve this problem so so I reconfigure
xserver-xorg and set up again my keyboard.
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
So I have in my xorg.conf in the Section "InputDevice" this:
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "hu,hr,cs"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
and now I can use alt+tab on my Hungarian keyboard to switch
between windows and alt+# to switch to the approppriate workspace.
