Description mhh1422 2015-08-08 09:39:14 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 8.1 Beta (Build 201508041349)
Operating System = Linux version 3.19.0-25-generic running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0_51
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.51-b03

The operating system is Ubuntu 15.04 (just upgraded from 14.04), also, just installed the NB8.1beta.

If I want to move the focus to any element using the ALT+assigned_letter, it is simply not working.
Yesterday, in UBUNTU 14.04 and NB8.0.2, it was working well, after the upgrade/installation, it is not working even in NB older version 8.0.2.
Tried to find a solution online, to change, the shortcut in both NB and system but nothing helped.

Also, when pressing ALT alone, the menu bar appears but nothing can be selected using the arrow or a letter, it just appears without getting any focus.
