Until you press at least one key on its internal keyboard, the keyboard
plugged in via the USB port does nothing. However, if you've pressed
anything on the USB keyboard, as soon as something's pressed on the
internal keyboard, the buffer contents come spewing out. I think I
mentioned in the original message that a USB-attached keyboard wouldn't
see any response from GRUB until a key on the internal keyboard got
pressed.
