I've succeeded in mapping ctrl+alt+z to a custom binding (gnome-system-monitor).

When I change it to ctrl+esc, or ctrl+alt+esc, it does nothing. I looked through the other bindings mapped in keyboard preferences,and don't see any conflicting bindings.

Does anyone have any ideas about why this wouldn't work?

Edit: Thanks to @Redbob's suggestion, I found the existing binding for ctrl+alt+esc in the dconf-editor. No such luck with the plain ctrl+esc binding: I also failed to find the ctrl+esc binding in the dconf settings on terminal (gsettings list-recursively | grep "Escape" as suggested by this question).

The conflict for ctrl+alt+esc came from this dconf entry: org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings cycle-panels ['<Control><Alt>Escape']

    install dconf-editorand go to /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings, probably you will find these shortcuts. If so, disable it there. – Redbob Oct 02 '17 at 03:11
