I can reproduce it but only in:
* GNOME Shell 3.36.4
* KDE Plasma Shell 5.18.5
But in XFCE, LXDE, LXQT, MATE and others <Ctrl>+<Aly>+<F(n)> works fine for me.
At first, I've tried to use `sudo chvt 2` for switching form KDE on tty1 to Raw Console on tty2. After switching to tty2 <Ctrl>+<Aly>+<F(n)> works as in early days.
It doesn't depends on video drivers or kernel flags and etc. For my laptop I've got the same for nvidia:455.38 and for i915, with modeset and with nomodset, with GFX grub mode and without.
But I guess, this is not a system or hardware problem, because there are no any troubles with small environments. So after some research I found, that you can use `sudo kbd_mode`.
So for me `sudo kbd_mode -af` works fine without reboot.

Unfortunately I cannot find `DontVTSwitch` option in xorg.conf-like all-over the system, as was said for example here: /unix.stackexch ange.com/ questions/ 34158/rebinding -disabling- ctrlaltf- virtual- terminal- console- switching

I think it'll be better solution.
The solution of Fredrik Öhrström (oehrstroem) also sounds great.
