I frequently use keyboard shortcuts in VS Code to speed up my workflow. However, since switching to Ubuntu, I've noticed an issue with shortcuts that involve the "Alt" key. Every time I press and hold "Alt," the menu bar in VS Code activates, showing underlined letters as accelerators. This disrupts my ability to use shortcuts that require the "Alt" key.

According to the Ubuntu documentation, the "Alt" key has a system-wide function described as follows:
Alt: Hold down the Alt key to reveal accelerators — underlined letterson menu items, buttons, and other controls. Press Alt plus theunderlined letter to activate a control, just as if you had clicked onit.
I'm looking for a way to disable this "Alt" key behavior or at least reassign it to a different key so that I can use "Alt" key shortcuts within VS Code without triggering the menu bar. Ideally, I'd like to achieve this without installing third-party software.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
