Fortunately, this was an easy one: in 2018, there were some fixes for the
Atari keymap in the kernel so it emits standard PC keycodes, therefore
using an Atari console keymap breaks everything. The fix is easy,
/etc/default/keyboard shouldn't read as XKBMODEL=3D"ataritt" but
as XKBMODEL=3D"pc105". That fixes the keyboard weirdness.
