Same situation here. I believe in my case, this is triggered by turning
effects On (System > Preferences > Visual Effects), and subsequently
turning Visual Effects back off. While 'On', ALT key combos work fine.
Then when turned off, ALT is ignored. Pressing ALT-TAB twice when focus
is on a terminal yields:

 h...@honey:~$
 Display all 294 possibilities? (y or n)

Restarting X is the only back to sanity I've found.
