@Artyom: The issue is with Ubuntu 13.10 which has specific new changes when switching layouts.
My layouts are EN/GR/RU, and while RU is active, the shortcuts do not work. I tested with Ctrl+A (Select All).
Do note that I check with 'gedit' (core GTK+ app). Some other apps like Chromium have specific changes and are unaffected.

** Summary changed:

- Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout
+ Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout in 13.10

Bug description:
  New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce  old-new bug. Any system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected non-latin keyboard layout. 
  Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly. 

  Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
  parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard
  layout.

  Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
  latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead
  of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
  english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin
  layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.
