I do. And you were correct that I did run brltty from within the graphical 
environment.

I shutdown the graphical environment and switched to only using the linux 
terminal provided by the kernel with the slowest kbdrate 2.0 cps (delay = 250 
ms). The manual doesn’t seem to tell me how to turn it off.

tty1 has my network stuff running
tty2 has sudo brltty -n -r -p hw:0,0
tty3 has vim for testing the issue
tty4 has weechat for testing the issue

With this new setup, the characters double less often. I could not reproduce 
the problem in vim after I terminated weechat. With weechat open, vim gets 
maybe 1/1000 characters doubled. In weechat it is more like 1/100 characters 
get doubled.
The character doubling rate before i changed setups was near 1/10
I will take a look at what is causing this in the code eventually, but it is 
currently not my top priority.

That sounds frustrating. I’ll try to keep tabs on stuff like that.

In closing, I think you are on to something since it seems dependent on the 
keyboard rate. I can only assume this is a low priority since this probably 
does not effect Braille input. I would be curious about the solution if anyone 
finds out what is going on.
