    Has this issue been solved yet? This was really the only reason I wanted to use parallels and if I can't get this to work there is no point :(

    I submitted the report. The alt key is slow to respond so if i try to do a key command in Excel that uses alt, it ends up not registering because I'm typing faster than the computer is registering the alt key. Same issue as others in this thread reported. It makes excel extremely difficult to use for power users.

    Any resolution? I'm experiencing this exact issue. Excel is hard to use negating my reason for installing Parallels.

    Confirmed that this issue is unique to remapping the Cmd (⌘) key. I plugged in a PC keyboard and instead of my typical Mac remapping of ⌘ to and to ⌘, I left those defaulted and then remapped to Alt in Parallels. I can now use Alt commands quickly in Parallels, but the keyboard isn't usable in OS X at the same time.

    Any solutions to this problem, I have the exact same problem! It only happens with the apple magic keyboard as mentioned above and when remapping ⌘ to ALT. When I press ⌘, there is a delay when Alt is activated in the VM
