In Ubuntu 10.04 with the default Spanish keyboard layout, AltGr + 4 produces ~.
This has been the case since April 2008,
0fb00efe (svu                2008-04-23 18:12:14 +0000  17)     key <AE04>      
{ [         4,     dollar,   asciitilde,       dollar ] };

Could you please try again with Ubuntu 10.04?

The situation you get when you have to press the key and then a space, is that 
somehow the dead_tilde is being mixed up.
For the Spanish layout, you get dead_tilde if you press AltGr + (that key that 
shows the Exclamation Down character).

So, if you still get the problem, then you either
1. have a mixed up keyboard model that mixes the '4' key with 'exclamation 
down'.
2. or you may have enabled by accident IBus (see Language Support, make sure 
that IBus is disabled).
