I do not get either the behavior changes along the version.

RDP keyboard handling has improved considerably since 0.9.14, particularly with 
respect to tracking of keyboard modifiers and their context.

When you tell Guacamole that the remote desktop is using a French keyboard 
layout, and then locally press Ctrl+Alt, Guacamole's RDP support knows that 
Windows considers Ctrl+Alt equivalent to AltGr. When you press a key whose 
identity requires that AltGr not be in effect ("a" in this case), Guacamole 
will automatically release Ctrl+Alt on your behalf to allow the pressed key 
("a") to have the correct identity.

> Hi,
> As I was trying to migrate from my Guagamole instance in 0.9.14 to 1.2.0, I 
> notice that the Ctrl/Alt key combination was not working anymore.
>  
> I put the exact same configuration for my target RDP VM.
>  
> I noticed that when I remove the the keyboard layout, the Ctrl+Alt works fine.
>  
> But when I set my connection with:
>  * Basic Settings
>  ** Keyboard layout: French (Azerty)
>  
> The Ctrl+Alt does not work anymore.
>  
> I reproduced the bug while using the auto-type of Keepass (Ctrl+Alt+A) which 
> only print 'a'.
> I test also using Ctrl+Alt+K to show Keepass
>  
> Thank you
