I run an up-to-date Jaunty system.  I've experienced this problem since
about February when I moved from hardy to jaunty.

Not sure where this bug is hiding.  I'm using Gnome, but I have quite a
bit of trouble with keyboard entry where I suspect scim is the culprit.
Help in pinpointing the issue greatly appreciated.

I have four workspaces.  It happens at times (not always, but frequently
enough to be annoying, about 25% of the time, I'd say) that when I use
Ctrl+1 to switch to the first workspace for example, that a string of
"11111111111111" is continually input into any text field in the active
window on that workspace.  It's almost as if the 1 key was stuck (which
is not the case).  When I go to Ctrl+2, it will be "2222222222".
Hitting Esc will usually end any further input.  But almost any key I
hit (such as backspace for deletion) will output another "1" or "2"
character.  The character is always the same as the workspace number
that I just switched to.

If I was using VoIP at the time this happened, the partner on the other
end of the line and me will hear a regularly recurring beep sound.  I'd
say the frequency is either once or twice per second.

"dmesg|grep kbd" right after this happened will get me "[194092.286510]
atkbd.c: Spurious NAK on isa0060/serio0. Some program might be trying
access hardware directly."

Although similar, I don't think I am seeing bug 124406 for the reasons I
have given there.
