I have this same problem with Teamviewer (Ubuntu 16.04 host, any client). I have tried selecting and de-selecting 'send remote key combinations' to no noticeable effect. I have also found that disabling 'show location of pointer' either through gnome-tweak-tool or gconf via cli disables the ctrl key almost entirely in the host OS, ctrl-c (copy), ctrl-v (paste), ctrl-a (select all) ctrl-s (save) shift-ctrl-s (save as) shift-ctrl-e (export) for example, do not work in any application at all afaik ....but oddly shift-ctrl-up/down (switch workspace) does work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300662 Title: Virtualbox ignores CTRL key if "Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed" option is enabled under Mouse preferences !
