I tried a different keyboard and got the same results.
Checked global settings for KDE; they're okay.
But in other applications, the key seems to simply not work.

Tried telling the OS to use an International US keyboard. (wont stay
there any longer as it takes away the quote key. <urk!> But that
change didnt affect the left Alt key behavior.


Kept fiddling:

Went back to the KDE Control Center > Regional > Keyboard Shortcuts >
Navigation and reset the defaults for Forward and Back.  That is, I
changed them and then changed them back again.

Seems to have worked.

I have no clue why!
