I think you have
Option "DontVTSwitch"
in your xorg.conf. 

It "disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Fn sequence (where Fn refers to one of 
the numbered function keys). That sequence is normally used to switch to 
another 'virtual terminal' on operating systems that have this feature. When 
this option is enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed 
to clients. Default: off"
