It does behave this way on multiple Macs, yes. I have it connected to 
my 2011 iMac right now (which currently has a bluetooth keyboard, 
trackpad and then wired mouse and this wired keyboard attached to it. 
Overkills'r'us). It's showing the same issue.

Definitely looking like the keyboard itself but yep - booting into 
recovery is a good idea which I'll try later.

Cheers,
Ian
