I have just faced this and kbd_mode -s also fixed the issue for me. The
behavior started out of nothing (something I did without perceiving most
likely). I'm using:
[rafaeldtinoco@fujitsu ~]$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.10
Release: 20.10
Codename: groovy
apt-history shows last apt command was yesterday (for my host) and it
was working fine yesterday. Unfortunately I have no time to dig into
this now, but wanted to state that this still happens in 20.10 (and
possibly 20.04 according to @ribalkin report).
