Public bug reported:

In 16.04, invoking the HUD allowed commands to be typed which would
produce a list to choose from. In 18.04, pressing ALT does show the
empty HUD - but typing commands doesn't populate a list for some
applications. I upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04.

Not working:
Firefox, LibreOffice, Audacity (even with pasuspender)

Working:
Gedit

Other apps work, but don't display comprehensive menus like in 16.04.
Eg, gnome-terminal only shows a Terminal menu in the menu bar rather
than File, Edit, View etc that was present on 16.04. Other examples of
these are Baobab, Nautilus.

It didn't affect upgraders until recently according to two commenters
