I use a standard Apple bluetooth keyboard all the time on my Mac Mini. Only
time I have keystrokes not getting processed is when I wake the machine out of
sleep mode. Then I think VO is more the problem with lack of responsiveness. I
may also experience much sluggishness or whatever when Time Machine is updating
my backup. Machine and keyboard just work better when that process gets out of
the way. Another thing I like to do to be sure my keyboard is working OK is to
tap the Caps Lock key because this won't input any unwanted characters but VO
will speak a response when things are working right. Another trick is to hold
down FN key and press F11 and F12 back and forth and you will hear the ticks of
the volume control. I base this last comment on having the function keys set to
software so FN key must be held down for hardware things like volume.

I have the Apple bluetooth keyboard and though I know usually when the
batteries are going, it seems to often just be recalcitrant about keystrokes
or commands. Today I have to exit Mail and come back in before it would
register that I was hitting the delete key or enter key.
Often in my Twitter client, Night Owl, keyboard commands will be totally
ignored for many presses of the key until finally something clicks. I do love
the feel and size of the Apple keyboard and thus have not tried a full size
regular keyboard to know if these things are endemic.
I'll probably try the commands on the MBP keyboard next,as that brilliant
idea just popped into my head but does anyone else have this issue with the
apple bluetooth keyboard?
