I was looking here (perhaps related to your woes) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-settings/+bug/1633721 and here https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=111=153312 where they've arrived at the conclusion it's an ibus issue (fix included).

Did you look for error messages - post here and also the reference to the bug. probably it is udev -> dbus -> plasma but it is amateurs guess. I see issues with some cheep kvm, mice and keayboards from time to time, which the kernel manage to work around. Might be you are not so lucky. regards
plasma5 - howto reload keyboard module?
Hi folks, from time to time I get into an issue in plasma5 (and only in plasma5). The problem is, that without an obvious reason suddenly the keyboard is no more working. No input is possible. The mouse is working. Question: Is there any possibilty to reload the keyboard module (I do not know, if plasma is using the kernel module or its own) without completely restarting plasma5? As I have some unexperienced customers with the same problem, my idea was, to create a button, where they can click on, so that the keyboard is loaded again. Thios would be the smallest annoying solution. Thus I have to know, how the keyboard can be restarted. Any ideas? Oh, this behaviour is happening since years, and somewhere there is even a bugreport of this, but no one ever cared. So I am looking for another solution. Thanks for reading and any help.
