            Bug ID: 218093
           Summary: Keyboard will not register any input after using
                    certain FN-Combos
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: USB
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
        Regression: No

MSI B550 A-Pro Motherboard
Sharkoon SGK3 Keyboard

I pretty much tried all Kernels. The Issue is always the same:

When pressing a FN-Combo for the Keyboard-LEDs in my Case FN+=. The keyboard might not be able to send any more input. "Normal" Combos like using the FN key to increase or decrease the Volume like FN+F2/F3 will not cause this issue. When checking with tools like evtest i noticed that sometimes no release command of the keyboard is received and it spams the Terminal while no more other input is recognized. Connecting the Keyboard to a USB3 Port (instead of the USB "Keyboard Port") the keyboard stays responsive though you'll still see the "terminal spam" caused by no release event.

I tried blacklisting certain combos so that i wouldn't accidently hit that key though it just doesn't help. To be honest it seems to me that Linux recognizes/receives that it shouldn't. Because even if the Input "freezes" i'm still able to change the LED-Behaviour of the Keyboard..
On Windows this issue doesn't exist. So i'm pretty certain that it is related to Linux in some way. I also tried an Uefi-Update yet the Issue persisted. I'm by no means a "Linux Pro" and actually have no clue what else i could try. So i just wanted to report that here in case someone else is having this issue.

Where is the output? And what device do you have this issue with?
