It sounds similar to a kernel bug I filed a little while ago.

But at least you can still use yours.
If you think your bug is related to mine, you could add info.
If you think it's different, it's probably still the kernel, but I
suppose it could be hal or X11 stuff. I think they both do some
handling on their own. Do you see the problem in run level 1 or 3?
Both kernels I currently have in Test3 do the same thing; I also have a
Test2 partition and it behaves normally.
When I first boot, the NumLock light is on, but the keyboard is actually
in NumLock OFF. When I press the NumLock key, all three lights come on
steady and the NumLock function is enabled. Further operation of the
NumLock or CapsLock keys does toggle the function of the keyboard, but
the three lights stay on forever until reboot.
I opened a console session with Ctrl-Alt-F1 and the behavior there was
the same. I don't remember another way to get to a different run level.
I don't think this is the same problem you are dealing with. I'm still
unsure what to report it against.

The indicators are controlled by a code as on the linked table. The
kernel could be the problem or some driver for the keyboard.
Are you using a USB or PS2 type of keyboard?
