    Is there a way to allow the key combo: alt-F1 to be sent to a Linux guest vm without it being picked up by macOS? Things always go haywire when I use this, but I find I frequently need it.

    Seems the only way is to disable Alt-F1 shortcut in host macOS.

    Hm, I don't see it anywhere in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts. Any ideas on how to disable?
    Maybe I need to set up a new shortcut for an app that uses option-F1 and does nothing? Not sure.
