I found an older Ubuntu box (18.04) with older LO/Calc (6.4.7.2) and Gnome rather than Wayland, and it works correctly: [Alt+F] opens the File menu, and the New sub-menu then auto-opens, but the File menu’s options remain available for keystroke selection.
I then installed LODev 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ for testing, and the issue is present using this version on my system. Thus, it does not appear to be only a LO issue. It has been suggested that this may be related to Wayland, rather than LO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2084605 Title: File|(all options) can no longer be accessed via keystrokes Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: $ lsb_release -rd No LSB modules are available.

I am no longer able to use keystrokes to access the Recent Documents list. Previously, [Alt+F],U would display the most recently accessed documents, but there is now only a 0.5 second window in which the ‘U’ can be pressed, before the File|New sub-menu appears, disabling the ability to keystroke-select the Recent Documents option on the File menu. What I expected to happen: [Alt+F],U would display the most recently accessed documents list What happened instead: Unless the 'U' is pressed very quickly (but not TOO quickly), the File|New sub-menu appears, disabling the ability to keystroke-select the Recent Documents option on the File menu.
