FVWM: left and right control keys behaving differently

I'm running fvwm 2.6.7-3 on Linux Mint 19.2, and have the 
following in my .fvwm2rc for scrolling with the keyboard:

Key Left	A	CM	Scroll -100 0
Key Right	A	CM	Scroll +100 +0
Key Down	A	CM	Scroll +0   +100
Key Up		A	CM	Scroll +0   -100
Key Left	A	CS	Scroll -100 0
Key Right	A	CS	Scroll +100 +0
Key Up		A	CS	Scroll +0   -100
Key Down	A	CS	Scroll +0   +100

Strangely, Left Control + either Left or Right Alt + either 
Left or Right Shift works as expected with the Left, Right, 
and Up arrow keys, but does not work with the Down key!

Right Control + Right Alt has the same problem (works with 
Left, Right, and Up, but not Down).

Right Control + Left Alt or Right Control + Shift (either)
also works as expected.

Can someone please suggest where I should start trying to
figure this out?

Thanks!
