I unmapped the normal win-a combination to get slinger to show but the splat option key combination is already a mapped on Ubuntu 17.10 for me. It brings up numbered shortcuts in the dock application. I can't find a place to disable.

I'm using Arch Linux so I'm not sure how Ubuntu 17.10 is set up, but for me the conflict was in the Dash to Dock Gnome extension. In Gnome Tweaks tool go to the Extensions page and open the options for Dash to Dock. On the Behavior tab you can disable the "Use keyboard shortcuts to activate apps" setting.

Interestingly I only had to deal with conflicts in one of two almost identical Arch installs. The first one I set up just seemed to work without me unmapping anything. The second one though required me to work around the conflicts.

I had a look and I don't have the dash to dock extension. I think it got removed when I was tweaking things for the workspaces to dock extension. So I'm still not sure what is controlling that keyboard mapping. Thanks though.

Updated with a new shortcuts schema in #17 considering the actual shotcuts used in gnome and Ubuntu. Many hotkey conflicts solved.
