ALT key bug in Stencyl

Hello I have just managed to finish my fist platform game build in Stencyl, yet I encounter an odd problem,
I use the Platform movement resource with some slight modifications.
My default keys for moving the character are the RIGHT - move right,  Left-move left, Up - jump, Down - duck and X - fire.

If by accident you touch the ALT key while another key (arrow keys or the X) is pressed- the character will execute by itself the same command over and over and you are not able to control it anymore.

Ex you were pressing right to move right a touch the ALT key - the character will walk by itself and you can't stop it.
If you were pressing X to shoot and touch the ALT key - the character will shoot repeteadly and you can't stop it.

This is fore sure a bug as I have not defined any actions inside my game for the ALT key or any other keys beside the Arrows and the X

This happens when running any game in the Flash Player.

The bug is only present when testing locally in stencyl flash player, when playing the game inside a browser everything works good.
