That's because most keyboards can't process these three keys together
(lookup keyboard ghosting).  You need to use the ESC prefix instead of
the meta key.  If M-~ also doesn't work, then there might be a problem
with your X configuration and the mapping of the "Alt Gr" key, but I
think your problem is simply ghosting.  In any case, Emacs can't do
anything about it, it simply never got the keypress you think it should
be getting (most likely it'll see ALT_L and SHIFT_L3 pressed and
released, which means nothing to do).


Regards,
Achim.
