Title:
Alt+F[n] keyboard shortcuts don't function in new sessions
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have historically had three custom keyboard shortcuts:
gVim: Alt+F12
System Monitor: Shift+Ctrl+Escape
Python: Alt+F6
Since updating from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04, while the System Monitor
shortcut continues to function, the two Alt+F[n] shortcuts do not
function regularly.
All three are apparent in System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts ->
Custom Shortcuts; if I select one of the two dysfunctional shortcuts
and either clear it or change it to something else, and then change it
back, it begins to work. However, when I log into a fresh session or
restart the machine, the shortcut becomes dysfunctional once more.
Additionally, attempted invocation of either of the dysfunctional key
combinations in a terminal renders the control sequence, passed
through (as ^[[17;3~ or ^[[24;3~). This gives credence to my notion
that the shortcuts had not been taken by something else (which would
give an excuse for their registration failing).
