This seems to only happen in IE.
IE's Java GUI components aren't the system's native components (as they should be), so many common operations don't work (like right-clicking to copy and paste).
A workaround for Alt+#s is to type the Alt-sequence in another text field, copy it, then paste it via Ctrl-V.
