I have been experiencing this on a regular basis with VMWare Workstation 6.0.4 build-93057. I am running an AMD Phenom 9850+ BE with the 64bit version of Kubuntu. My kernel version is 2.6.24-19 I am running KDE4 and I am using the Nvidia Xorg driver. I'm glad that the "setxkbmap" workaround was posted. Up to now I've just been logging out of KDE4 and logging back in which is a total pain. I havn't noticed any actual application stability issues on the Linux side while running VMWare as some have reported, but this keyboard issue is extremely irritating. My system is currently up to date with the latest versions of everything.
