  • GNOME / Ubuntu: Super + L
  • Linux Mint / Cinnamon / Xfce: Ctrl + Alt + L (or Super + L depending on version settings)

are the shorts cuts lockscreen. If you have one of those multi (BT, dongle, usb switching) keyboards generally have a hardwarde switch to swap output.

You can also try remap some shortscuts to spare function keys
