[opensuse-kde] an unresponsive keyboard in KDE4

I'm using KDE4 unstable (4.1.63). Before anyone feels a need for a
disclaimer, I realize the risks of running the unstable version. That said,
I'm just looking for a clue about how to narrow down the problem in a better
way than the one I can think of.
The keys of my keyboard that are mapped become unresponsive some time during
the loading of KDE4 and only KDE4. The last time I used that environment
without the problem, I installed a couple of rpms from the unstable "extra
gear" repository. Since then, I've removed them all and that hasn't made a
difference. Those were the only changes I made. (And the ones I installed
didn't require any other packages.)
My other users do not experience this problem. I tried backing up my plasmarc
and plasma-appletsrc files and starting with fresh plasma, but that didn't
stop the problem. I could go through and do the same with each of the files
in my config directory (or some variation thereof), but I'm looking for
something simpler.
The funny thing is that it's only my mapped keys. I know this because on my
keyboard, there's a key called F Lock that works like Num Lock but for other
keys and has its own little light. That little light turns on and off as I
press the F Lock key, but I cannot get the other lights to change their state
and I can't, of course, type anything.
Any suggestions?
