I don't know what they have done in Ubuntu but 12.04 understands both press and release. Layout switching happens on release. If you press Alt you see the global menu and after release HUD uppears. Looks like everything has been fixed. But if you use Ctrl or Alt for layout switching you still can't use this key for anything more, it's "exclusived" :( So ridiculous.
