(keyboard-layout (keyboard-layout "us,ua"
#:options '("grp:alt_shift_toggle")))
does work for me, although grp:shifts_toggle does not. Possibly
grp:shifts_toggle would only work on some keyboards?
If your stuck console state is a real bug and not due to xoff/xon flow
control (i.e. Ctrl-S was pressed), then this is a bug with some software
used by Guix, maybe the Linux kernel, or with console-setup. Though I
cannot reproduce it with grp:alt_shift_toggle.
GNOME has its own settings that are configurable inside the GNOME
Keyboard Settings.

Florian
