I have found a workaround here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=167687
This bug affects only Libreoffice. In other applications (e.g. Gedit, Nautilus, Thunderbird etc.), the shortcuts work even after switching layouts. If you remove libreoffice-gtk and libreoffice-gnome, the problem is solved, although libreoffice becomes very ugly. It should be noted that the bug affects both Ubuntu 13.10 and UbuntuGnome 13.10. I have tried this workaround in both an Ubuntu and an UbuntuGnome installation. Libreoffice In Ubuntu became unusable, although the bug disappeared, whereas in UbuntuGnome Libreoffice could still be used. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1226962 Title: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout in 13.10 Status in IBus: New Status in Indicator keyboard: Fix Committed Status in Unity: Invalid Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “indicator-keyboard” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce old-new bug. Any system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected non-latin keyboard layout. Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly. Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard layout. Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non- latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with english layout. If you use english and two different non-latin layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.
