Ubuntu 18.04 Keystroke Alt + Shift + (Ctrl) + Down does not work
After upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS to 18.04 LTS (with unity) the keystrokes Shift + Alt + Down
and Alt + Shift + Ctrl + Down
stopped working (btw Alt + Shift + (Ctrl) + [Up, Left, Right]
works).
I used these keybindings in PHPStorm/Webstorm. In these programs you can search what a key binding does by simply pressing those keys and when I do, Webstorm does not display/catch these keystrokes, like if they were not pressed.
I searched in CompizConfig Settings Manager advanced search in settings value, in the Settings/Keyboard/Shortcuts and with gsettings list-recursively | grep Down
and I didn't find anything.
If I press this combo outside of Webstorm Ubuntu does nothing.
Have you any idea where this keybinding could be saved?
PS: I tried this tool (screenkey) to display pressed keys. But it didn't display Alt + Shift + Down
or Alt + Shift + Ctrl + Down
Thank you for your help

@JoshuaBesneatte Thank you for your reply, but this is not that case. But I looked on theSwitch applications
option and I have this option as disabled, but pressingAlt + Tab
switches applications, which is weird

In my case it luckily was just about re-mapping the keys in Settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts.
Here, moving the active window up/down was defined as Shift+Super+Page Up/Down, same without Shift was applied for moving one workspace up/down.
Re-mapping to what I was used to ([Shift+]Ctrl+Alt+Up/Down) did the trick :-)

After deeper investigation I found out, that this issue is a hardware keyboard problem.
I tried this keystroke on windows and it also was not recognized.
I have Roccat Isku keyboard.
At work I tried the same upgrade from 16.04 to 18 and replacing gnome with unity and this keystroke worked (I have different keyboard at work)

Gnome Tweaks helps me to fix it!
- Go to Keyboard & Mouse > Additional Layout Options.
Turn off all options for "Switching to another layout".

Instead of turning off "Switching to another layout" as suggested above, you can switch other than ctrl-alt combination.
