Alt+Shift to switch language conflicts with Alt+Shift+Tab for previous window

I have a fresh installation of Ubuntu 20.04.
I use gnome-tweaks to map Alt+Shift to swtich language.
The problem is that when I use Alt+Tab to switch window, the option to press Alt+Shift+Tab (which supposed to be "previous window") doesn't work, and instead the language input is changing.

How can I resolve this conflict? I want both shortcuts to work.

You may want to choose another key combination for switching languages as it conflicts with the Alt+Tab functionality, like you see. There are quite some options. Else change the Alt+Shift+Tab. You will need to choose. – vanadium May 08 '21 at 12:13

Does this answer your question? OS keyboard shortcuts conflict with apps keyboard shortcuts in GNOME 3 . Remove GNOMEs Hell, install Xfce, KDE or MATE with my PPA instead. – N0rbert May 08 '21 at 13:03
@N0rbert First, Kudos to you for the PPA and patches. I'm not sure I want to purge Gnome? I use many gnome-shell extensions. – Amit Shani May 11 '21 at 06:09
