There is a problem with using AWN and the run apps dialog (Alt+F2). It simply doesn't work any more, when you disable gnome-panel. A good replacement is Gmrun:
sudo apt-get install gmrun
Then do the following steps:

- disable the Alt+F2 key combination
- add a new key combination for gmrun and assign Alt+F2
