Sikuli internally uses Java-AWT Robot, to send keyboard actions to the
native system (which is the host system in any case) and as such depends
on Java's implementation of the native interface (which is surely more
generic, than in AutoIt).

With RemoteConnection windows and VM windows, we notice different problems, that mostly are specific to the solution used.
If there are problems and you do not have a workaround, there is nothing to do, to solve the situation with the current Sikuli versions.

With VM windows, I noticed, that the problems tend to vanish, if you switch off any mouse integration (seamless use of mouse).
The mode that works is the one, where you first have to click into the Window, before it gets focus  and then you have to press some special key combo, to uncatch the mouse (until then, you will not be able to move the mouse to outside of the window).

So if your virtual console has something like this, then try it.

Have you tried, to first click into the window, before issuing a type?
