Just a wild idea, but if the main keyboard has a numlock key, try
toggling it and use the keypad. The system may be treating the keypad as
cursor control.



The keyboard does not have a numlock key.

Are you really sure?  I've never seen a keyboard without a numlock key, but
sometimes it's somewhat hidden.

I am really sure there is no numlock key on this keyboard. If it's
hidden, I'd identify it how? Every key has a label, some have two,
none are numlock or anything that could possibly be interpreted as
being numlock.

The external keyboard is a full keyboard and doesn't have a numlock key or it's just the number pad? Try installing the numlockx package and see if that helps. On my laptop, using that program to turn on the numlock does not affect the embedded number pad on my laptop the same way as using the numlock key, but maybe it will work for your external one.
