Greg,
Thank you for your persistence in reporting this bug. I have finally
tracked it down and it is fixed in the next beta. Long live the
keyboard!

I don't understand the complaint. Things work for me as I would
expect in windows. Let's follow through on a specific case.
start J
mouse click Studio menu
mouse click Labs...
Alt+R (underlined shortcut letter on the Run button)
selected lab is run
Does this not work for you? Please give a detailed example (as simple
as possible) of what you think is wrong.
That helps to know it is supposed to be ALT:-)
And from a clean slate it works.
In particular the pure keystroke sequence AltS-L-AltR works.
However there seems to be a state change that happens... yuck:(
And with lots of experimentation i am not getting a repeatable way of
causing it.
But it is not long before i lose the ability to run As-l-Ar Once gone
i can not get it back.
This makes me think it is not a keyboard issue from my overly smart
keyboard: no amount of multiple toggles on the alt key etc seems to
bring it back, but rebooting J works like a charm.
Ah! This is repeatable: As-l-Ar As-l-Ar As-l-Ar ...
First two do a run of the first Lab ... thereafter i have lost Alt key
capability: including the other hot keys on the form. And at least on
some other forms, eg Studio | Author no longer responds to Ac to close
the form. Closing the form & reopening fails to help
Utterly peculiar and i suppose there could be something idiosyncratic
about my machine. So if anyone else can repeat it...
