alt click and other alt key combinations not working with World of Warcraft
I cannot do alt+left click or alt+right click in game
alt+ctrl+ left click works
I can Alt+tab out of the game to other programs so it does work to get out of the game, just not in game

I just saw this on a wine faq: (where do I change these settings? Still new to linux)
Even in full screen mode, window managers typically capture some keys.
For example, in KDE and GNOME, Alt+Left Click is used to move the whole
application window by default. Thus, this key combination is not
available to applications in Wine. You have to disable the colliding
combinations in your window manager. For KDE, see Control Center/Window
Behaviour or (better) Window-specific settings/Workarounds/Block global
shortcuts. For GNOME, see System/Preferences/Windows and change the
"Movement Key" setting. Also see System/Preferences/Keyboard Shortcuts
for specific keyboard combinations.

So, cinnamon? You'll have to dig around in the settings to find out if you have those key bindings

In Preferences > Windows
