I found a bug in swing that was introduced in Java9.
See bug # 8194873
The problem is the addition of checking for VM_RMENU
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/ba545e52b932/src/java.desktop/windows/native/libawt/windows/awt_Component.cpp#l2718
Please remove this check or find another way to check for it. This
new bit causes the right ALT shortcut keys to fail in Swing
components.
I believe the left ALT generates VK_MENU and the right alt generates
VM_MENU and VK_RMENU in Windows so the check is redudant.
Thanks.
