When I have Synergy running on my local machine while I am in a remote desktop session, pressing alt+tab will switch windows on the local machine, instead of switching between the remote computer's windows. This happens even when I have the option to always send the Windows key combinations to the remote computer. If I stop the Synergy service, then alt+tab works as I would expect, by sending the command to the remote computer.

Is there any way to force the alt+tab keyboard shortcut to switch windows on the remote desktop while the Synergy service is active? I use this keyboard shortcut all the time, and right now I know of no way to use a keyboard shortcut to switch between windows on the remote machine while Synergy is running. Even using Windows+1 or Windows+2 will switch to the 1st or 2nd application on the local machine's taskbar, instead of the remote machine's taskbar.
