Just to make this bug even weirder, It seems to be related to use of external
keyboards.

If I launch from an external keyboard's Calc key, neither its numpad nor any
other connected keyboard (including the one built-in to my notebook) behave as
though Num Lock is on, despite all indicator lights showing it is. However, If
I launch from the built-in keyboard's Calc key, its numpad will work as
expected like Num Lock is on, unless I press any key on an external keyboard's
numpad, then all numpads begin to behave as though Num Lock has been turned
off, though the Num Lock keys have never been touched.

I've also discovered the effects aren't limited to Calc key launches as I'd
previously thought. If I launch KCalc from KRunner, the numpad behaves, but as
soon as I press a numpad key on any other keyboard, they all begin to
(mis)behave as if Num Lock is off.

I've tried this with multiple external keyboards, including ones that have no
Calc key.
