By "killing the session (console)" do you mean restarting Xorg? There's 
a keyboard driver in Xorg, but when running the text console it is the 
kernel keyboard driver (hid). Which driver do you think has the problem? 
To test the hid driver you may login to the text console and try 
switching the kvm.
