1. Have you read Section 7.8 "Autopilot mode" in the Open Rails Manual ?

2. Are you running a Simulation Activity or Explore Mode ?

Yes. Works fine on my Dell. Alt+a is the only key that I have found that does not work.

Do you have Autopilot checked on the Open Rails Options => Simulations Tab?

For future reference, you should include the OpenRailsLog.txt file with requests for assistance as this option is displayed in the log along with all your system specifications that you manually typed into your post.
Logging must be checked on the Open Rails opening screen.
Do not use Logging on the Options panel! (there is a warning there)

Yes. Works fine on my Dell. Alt+a is the only key that I have found that does not work.

There may be another program running that is intercepting the Alt+a.
Try safe mode to see if Alt+a works.
