You are right, of course, but i wish it was true for my KDE on kubuntu.
The dang thing ignores ALT-SHIFT or any combination for that matter when
group switches are enabled. Or even more weirder, sometimes it switches once
and stops. This is before and after a total reinstall 2 weeks ago. Guess KDE 
does not like my keyboard.
So, in the event KDE configuration (System settings->Regional settings in KDE) 
won't succeed for our friend here, then he can do it in xorg.conf
