Expected behavior

I expect to switch to the first tab when I press "Alt+1", and to the 2nd table when I press "Alt+2", etc.

Actual behavior

When I press Alt+1 , the keyboard input is sent to the actual shell program. For example, if the tab is running CMD.exe, then 1 shows up in the CMD windows. This setup used to work just fine. Today I updated to Windows 10 2004, and this bug showed up.
