I worked with Zebra on this and was able to get the scanner working by reducing the USB polling interval on the scanner to 8msec, the default is to poll every 3msec. I still believe this is a bug in how xterm accepts input because of the following: A) This issue does not occur when accepting

Thomas: This issue is reproducible simply by attempting to scan a barcode into the xterm window NOT a child process, I was simply indicating that it happened in both places. The USB scanner is acting as a basic character-input device when used like this. There's no special application running
