It's an artifact of the nonstandard, buggy UI Adobe layered on top of the legacy FrameMaker code in FM9. The API or whatever that transmits the keystrokes from the new layer to the legacy code occasionally stops working.
I've never seen similar behavior in any other application on the half-dozen systems where I've run FM9 or later. I never used anything but a generic keyboard with the default driver.
