Also read this post [https://forum.manjaro.org/t/virtual-consoles-not-working-ctrl-alt-f1-6/3902] but didn't help.
Also tried Ctrl+Alt+Fn+[F1-F2-etc] and it didn't work.
$ chvt [x] works, I get a prompt. And Ctrl+Alt+F? also works to switch between ttys. But when I start an X session it stops working. I have no other issues with my keyboard, even function and media keys work as expected.
Please help. I have been fighting with this for a while now.
Thank you.

I also DON'T have "Keyboard Settings > Advanced > Miscellaneous compatibility options > Special keys handled in server" checked.
Also read this post [https://forum.manjaro.org/t/virtual-consoles-not-working-ctrl-alt-f1-6/3902] but didn't help.
Also tried Ctrl+Alt+Fn+[F1-F2-etc] and it didn't work.
$ chvt [x] works, I get a prompt. And Ctrl+Alt+F? also works to switch between ttys. But when I start an X session it stops working. I have no other issues with my keyboard, even function and media keys work as expected.
Please help. I have been fighting with this for a while now.
Thank you.
Gastón
