A long shot: try plugging the keyboard via a USB hub, and if you have a
few hubs lying around, try all of them. There is supposedly a USB
standard, but not all implementations are created equal, and you might
find a hub with which your keyboard is happier, and which has no
problems with your computer USB port. USB is a moderately complex
networking protocol, and there are definitely compatibility issues with
some ports and peripherals.
