This happens for me on Maverick with Vmware Workstation 7.1.4 build-385536. Sometimes, I don't notice it's a problem (say, I'm working in the VM where the keys still work fine), I go away for a while, the screensaver activates and I find I'm unable to enter my password. I have to kill gnome-screensaver from another machine using SSH, then run setxkbmap to fix it.
