In this situation what does the SHOW KEY command report for
the keys that you press?
Do you have multiple Keyboard Layouts installed? Such as
Dvorak or an International layout. If so, you may be unknowningly
instructing K95 to switch keyboard layouts using the Alt-Shift
or Ctrl-Shift key combinations.
