Thanks... I believe that was the problem. I added some modules to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and made a new initramfs image. Here are the modules I added (likely overkill, but now the keyboards work 100% of the time on all systems):

ehci_pci usbcore usb_common xhci_hcd uhci_hcd ehci_hcd ohci_hcd usbhid hid_generic

Thanks,

Brad
