Yup, on 13.10. My ctrl+t know doesn't work. Sooo i must have messed up testing it :). So yes there is a problem there.
Really im just wondering what use to happen, if this is a regression. As I see 3 cases, and 2 different ways to handle this. 1) You are using a standard qwerty latin keyboard with all the keys in the correct spot. 2) You are using a different layout where they keys (such as 't') may be in different locations. 3) You are using a language where such a key does not exists (such as 't'). The two ways to possibly handle this, as in case 1 there is no need to change how we handle it. If case 2, use the new location of the key if it has moved. If case 3, use the keycode of the key it self when no such key exists. Not entirely sure what the approach should be and would like to discuss this a bit more before heading down an implementation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

Any system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected non-latin keyboard layout. Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly. Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard layout. Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non- latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with english layout. If you use english and two different non-latin layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.
