Then that's excluded as a cause, obviously.

Have you looked in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? (note the uppercase "X"). This is where
the option is that turns off the function of ctrl-alt-del which restarts the X
server. If there is any option set that affects the use of the function keys
to switch to virtual consoles, that's where I would expect to find it.

A further suggestion would be to log in over ssh from another machine and run
journalctl -f as root to identify any interesting error messages when you're
trying to switch between the X desktop and virtual consoles (regardless of how
you invoke the X server).

I don't have other ideas at the moment but I'll certainly let you know if any
insights strike.
