Though I > cannot reproduce it with grp:alt_shift_toggle. I found that Shift+Alt with grp:alt_shift_toggle does work for me if I press Shift, then press Alt while holding Shift, and release them. If I press Alt first, then press Shift while holding Alt, and release them, something goes wrong and the input in the command prompt gets distorted. If I press Alt and Shift at the same time, the result is either of the above. I tried "showkeys -a", "read -r", and "cat". All showed that the escape sequence "^[" is prepended to all subsequent keys after pressing Alt+Shift if Alt being pressed first. It appears to be a bug somewhere. The console gets stuck as if Alt remains pressed. The issue persists at least accross Guix System installations on the same machine. $ kbdinfo gkbmeta escprefix Roman
