ubuntu 16.04: cannot disable or change keyboard shortcuts that conflicts with emacs' for setting mark

In Ubuntu 16.04, I have disabled the keyboard shortcuts for typing in the Keyboard settings as such:
But this seems to have no effect at all as the keyboard shortcuts remain active. This is true even after logging out or restarting the computer. For example, Ctrl+Space still switches the source of text input instead of setting the mark in emacs:
Notice that the text input source is now Chinese Pinyin.
Instead of disabling the keyboard shortcuts, I have also tried to set them to something else, but this makes no difference at all: Ctrl+Space still switches the text input source.

I have to admit it's odd that change in one place (keyboard settings) doesn't affect the setting in other place too (text entry). Please consider filing a bug report (probably for gnome-settings on ubuntu launchpad).

You need to disable the feature, not just it's shortcut.
In Settings > Text field (translated from czech) you can change the shortcut or disable it altogether.

Go to Settings -> Text Entry
text entry settings
Select the input source whose shortcut you do not want. For example, Pinyin(Fcitx) is selected here. Then, click on the button with a picture of a cross formed by a wrench and a screwdriver, and a keyboard. This opens up the window "Input Method Configuration". Go to the "Global config" tab:
input method configuration
Here, set the two boxes next to "Trigger Input Method" to "Empty". This can be done by first left clicking on them and then typing Esc (the escape key).

Yes it's what I meant, at least the first part. But you can also just change the key-combo on the right side of the first screenshot.

I have to admit it's odd that change in one place (keyboard settings) doesn't affect the setting in other place too (text entry). Please consider filing a bug report (probably for gnome-settings on ubuntu launchpad).
