On seeing that KHotKeys was a suggestion, I disabled the process and removed it
from startup. An hour and a half later (ten minutes ago), the problem
reoccured.

I was using Kopete again, chatting to a couple of friends for about an hour.
While typing, it worked great. When the message was sent, as always, I could
not start typing again without issue.

Immediately, I found out from my previous method (my previous problem-stating
post) the keyboard was usable *only* if you press a key for longer than a
second or two for the echo to appear. If a terminal is open during this time
period, you can (very slowly) type out anything necessary.

"top" was running and visible at the time the problem occured. No process
listed itself outside of the ordinary.
