This is sometimes happening to me on my krillin running rc-proposed,
with libmircommon6 version 0.24.1+15.04.20160928-0ubuntu1.

I have no idea what triggers it. When it happens, it tends to become
100% reproducible, until I reboot my device or unity8 crashes and is
restarted (which happens very rarely I must say, but it did happen a
couple of days ago and the keyboard issue was gone).

I will collect all the information you requested next time it happens.
