This happens from time to time on my Ubuntu Gnome 16.10 install. Most of the time, things will behave normally but once in a while, the Alt key shortcuts will do all kinds of crazy stuff with the TTYs (not only Alt+Left/Right but also Alt+F1~7)

I have no idea what causes this behavior but it has happened 3 times on the same Dell laptop. My main desktop PC (Gnome Shell installed on top of a regular Ubuntu install) has never had this issue.
