I still have the fubar keyboard problem when switching between my host (64bit Kubuntu Natty 11.04) and guest (32bit Microcrap Windoze 7) via VMWare Workstation 7.1.5.

Sometimes the Ctrl key stops responding, sometimes Alt-Tab stops responding. I have not noticed if both are broken at the same time. Running setxkbmap fixes it for the current session.

I always use Ctrl-Alt to switch the focus to the host, then Alt-Tab to switch the active app. I've never used CTRL-ALT-ENTER, partly because I always use Quick Switch to make my VM "almost" full-screen.
