Hi,

A quick fix (on main) attached. With this ALT_TITLE is ignored in the
document with #+OPTIONS: num:nil and if #+OPTIONS: num:t and :PROPERTIES:
:UNNUMBERED: t

MWE:
----
#+OPTIONS: num:t

* Test
:PROPERTIES:
:UNNUMBERED: t
:ALT_TITLE: alt
:END:

This is a test.

* Numbered test
:PROPERTIES:
:alt_title: alt numbered
:END:

This is the second part of the test.
----

PS: maybe a rework of this part to make it more readable could be
desirable....
