Bug Description

The left alt key cannot be used for keyboard commands such as alt left arrow to go back one page in a web browser. It appears that the left alt key will only function as the HUD key. The right alt key still works properly with keyboard commands.

The functionality of the left alt key is restored if you disable the HUD at startup.
