Hello: Sorry for the delay in responding back to you on this. I figured out how to reproduce this bug.

The issue occurs when you set a option in the 'Mouse Preferences' control panel window.

If you turn on this option, under 'Mouse > General ' : ' Locate Pointer: [ ] Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed '

then the Control-Alt-L default key stops working. If you turn off the show-pointer feature, it will start working again.

Hope this helps you triage and solve this bug.

Thank you , Stefan
