I have three suggestions:
- Simplify the configuration. If you are plugging the keyboard into a USB hub, for the purpose of testing, plug the keyboard directly into a USB port on the motherboard. If other USB devices are attached at boot, disconnect them. You are wanting to find the most minimal configuration which works or exhibits this behavior.
- Attempt to recreate this behavior with a different USB keyboard to determine if the problem is with the original keyboard.
- Lengthen the time between reboots -- in the vicinity of 20 minutes. I question whether there is a capacitor somewhere which needs to further discharge before a change in state is detected.

Is NetBSD the only operating system where this behaviour is exhibited? Is this a multiboot configuration?
