Description

When I link a keypress event to 3 keyboards, the event is only called when the "previous" pressed keyboard was a different one.

So I can't press the same keyboard multiple times, because only the first press fires an event. Unless I press another keyboard, then pressing the original one triggers an event - but still only that time, I have to press another keyboard before pressing the first one again...

Anyone got any solutions...?

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is identified in the issue. Start by reproducing the behavior with three keyboards and inspect how the JavaScript input event is emitted for repeated presses; done means the same keyboard can trigger successive events without another keyboard press.
