I don't know when it happens, but it seems to just kick in after a while. Anyway, some keyboard shurtcuts stop to work, and when I go in and try to reassign them just to see what happens, a "cirlce" is inserted behind the shortcut, a picture will say more than I ever can explain.
That circle would indicate that the numeric key pad modifier is down -- the Mac keyboard has no such thing, but sends the modifier with (some) of the numeric key pad keys (and the movement keys), and I try to circle these.
Is there a toggle on your USB keyboard? if so, the problem is likely just then, that the toggle is pressed.
Actually I do handle this better in recent builds [1], by ignoring the modifier when the pressed key has it, but not when the required key has it. I.e. setting an action to num pad 1 will only work for the num pad 1 key, but setting it to 1 will work with both the 1 key and the num pad 1 key.
If you do have the toggle on yuor keyboard, I'd like to know if it does work better for recent builds (which you can downlaod w/o needing to do anything fancy besides replacing TextMate.app).
