"Use Keyboard Shortcuts to Activate Apps" Toggle does nothing

[LordSushiPhoenix]

Running dash-to-dock v66 and gnome 3.32 the setting "Use Keyboard Shortcuts to Activate Apps" only has no effect, despite having the setting disabled all apps still open when super and their corresponding number is pressed. I have super+(1-4) set to switch workspaces in gnome settings, dash-to-dock is overriding that since the latest update.

Mine works, but a few minutes later the keyboard shortcuts are not working and I the numbers get typed into whatever I'm working on at the time. Toggling the toggle again fixes for a few more minutes.

Same issue as OP here. Cannot deactivate "Use keyboard shortcuts to activate apps". Or rather, deactivating seems to have no effect.

+1 With this problem, exact same shortcuts set as OP.

I can reproduce this on Ubuntu 19.04, although 'm very confused as even uninstalling ubuntu-dock and dash-to-dock the shortcuts are still active. I'm wondering if there's something else that is registering this shortcuts?

This is indeed a built-in functionality now in GS 3.32:

Seems like you can change or unset those with gsettings:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.keybindings switch-to-application-1 "[]"

they go from switch-to-application-1 to switch-to-application-9

To disable all 9, this loop will do the trick:

for i in {1..9}; do gsettings set org.gnome.shell.keybindings switch-to-application-$i "[]"; done
