Corsair k100 rgb optical keyboard goes undetected sometimes after sleep


Just a follow up since I found the problem. Its a hardware issue and Corsair sent me a brand new keyboard.

It must be a wiring issue. Or maybe how bending them will do something to the keyboard circuit close by.

For a while, I couldn't repeat the issue, but then moving the keyboard around and playing with the cable allowed me to make it fail on restart consistently. And then also make it work consistently as well when I "get it just right".
