This is the main reason i quit Ubuntu. The bug was always there since I begun with 18.04 and my workaround was to press the power key on my laptop and click cancel when shutdown window appears. It was taking away from professional feel of a computer and making it feel like a 2013 smart phone. I believe one of the reasons not a lot of people report this issue is because they silently read forum posts that have no resolution for about 2 years and then go install another distro like I did. It's sad that Ubuntu had a few other bugs that were appearantly experienced by a very few people, therefore never getting really addressed; like this keyboard bug will be ignored on this page as it have been the last 2 years. Yes, I'm bitter. Because Ubuntu was my first "escape from Windows" solution and I really liked it until I couldn't stand the unnoticed bugs anymore.

It is as if there is no keyboard connected while I have my laptop keyboard and an external keyboard connected to the machine. I even enabled On Screen Keyboard and tried to type through it. Same result.
