So after doing: $ xmodmap -e 'clear mod1 -e 'add mod1 = Alt_L' everything seems to do fine again. Note that xmodmap -e 'remove mod1 = Meta_L' didn't work for me. See also #254923.

Same, here and while attempting to track down the problem, I found that it was not limited to KDE, but the same behaviour occurred in GNOME too.

Window and desktop switching trouble
With recent upgrades to KDE in unstable (and qt 3.3 in experimental) window and desktop switching has changed on my system. Previously, I pressed Alt-Tab-Tab-... to cycle through windows (Win-Tab for desktops). After pressing Alt (Win) and Tab for the first time, a window appeared showing the title of the selected window (desktop). After releasing Alt (Win) the window immediately disappeared and the selected window (desktop) was brought to the front. This last step has changed. Now, after releasing Alt (Win), the selection window stays and only after pressing yet another key it disappears. I can only avoid this behavior by pressing the Alt(Win)-Tab sequence so quickly that the window does not become noticably visible. Of course, I'd like to get the old behavior back. And while I'm add it, I'd like to get rid off the Win key popping up the K-menu, something that apparently sneaked in with KDE 3.2.x.
