Started experiencing this in Ubuntu 18.04 on two different computers, since a few days ago, presumably because of a package upgrade ; both users are using the Unity shell (if it makes any difference; I didn't try another one) ; disabling those shortcuts is important because Alt+arrow are very commonly used as Back/Forward in Chromium and Firefox, whereas the virtual console feature is almost never used and doesn't deserve more than just the usual Ctrl+Alt+Fn bindings. The dumpkeys|grep|loadkeys hack works, but the problem is that it shouldn't ever be needed.
