I've got a strange bug on Ubuntu 16.04. I am sort of a new user to Ubuntu so I don't know how to troubleshoot this problem myself and it is very annoying. The problem is that every now and again Ubuntu acts as if I am holding down the "5" key and keeps on repeating the number until I stop it by pressing any other key. That solves the problem until the next time. I am using the Logitech Wireless K520 keyboard.

What I've tried so far

  1. In Settings I've ticked off the "Key presses repeat when key is held down". This solves the problem but I would really love to put it back on.
  2. I've increased the delay as well but that did not seem to fix the problem.

Here is a JSFiddle with my hardware (if it helps)

If anyone can help out, I would be more than happy.

Thanks in advance.

I tried turning off "repeat keys". It does stop the endless 5's across the screen, but I still get random single 5 characters. Losing the ability to repeat arrow keys is a nuisance, but not as bad as the main fault.
