[Bug 636311] Re: Keyboard special keys interfere with mouse

 

Here's the output of xev when I triggered it (XF86AudioPlay, line 133).
It shows a press event on the right mouse button (button 3), but no
corresponding release event, so the computer presumably assumes I'm
holding down the right mouse button. (Just to clarify, this is just from
the keyboard button press: I didn't press any of the mouse buttons.

Testing after that with xev (not in log), all the buttons apart from the
right one fire events correctly after that (left, scroll wheel press and
scroll up and down).

Also attaching Xorg.0.log. One interesting line:
[    12.072] (II) Microsoft Microsoft® Digital Media oard 3000: Found 1 mouse buttons
I've no idea if that's normal for this keyboard, nor whether the missing letters "Keyb" are any cause for concern. It's possible that the mouse button is there to support some of the special buttons, e.g. zoom in/out, but I don't know.
