Background: Windows is running in VirtualBox, running in a Unity session. The VirtualBox keyboard lock is active.
If I tap the Super key, the Windows start menu and the Dash Home open. (Bad: Dash Home shouldn't open.)
If I hold the Super key for half a second and release it, the Windows start menu opens but the Dash Home does not. (Good.)
Ditto with the Alt key; on tap, the HUD opens when it shouldn't. However, if I tap Alt+Tab, the HUD also opens (which is inconsistent, suggesting that the Alt key gets through to Unity but the Tab key doesn't).
What I am observing still is thus:

@Ryan, @Daniel: the issue you are having sounds to me like it's may be related to https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ gnome-control- center/ +bug/991873
