This is a strange problem. Using Ubuntu 20.04
If I switch to a console with Ctrl+Alt+F3, launch alpine, I can use Ctrl+t for selecting roles or browse for attachment in compose window.
If I launch alpine in a terminal emulator such as rxvt or Konsole, when prompted, Ctrl+t causes the cursor to flash and nothing else happens. It's now impossible to select Role in a terminal emulator or select a file to attach to a new email.
I am running Opensuse 15.2, and tried using Ctrl-T on konsole and urxvt, and it worked in both instances.
Alpine has an internal way to produce control characters. You need to press the ESC key twice, followed by the control letter you want, in this case, you would press "ESC ESC t"
