looking a bit more, indeed the gnome-shell behaviour changed as described in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/208/

They changed it to have to maintain the modifier and cycle through the configs by pressing the letter then, which doesn't work when you have a key 'faking the event' (which is what the upstream bug is about).

To support that usecase again they changed back in 3.30, which means it should work in 18.10. Could you try there if the issue is indeed resolved for you? If so we should backport https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/commit/fcdac69e to bionic
