This is what Left Ctrl + Shift + U produces: E: 24.575686 8 04 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 24.951689 8 04 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 26.719615 8 04 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 26.727611 8 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 On the other hand, Right Ctrl + Shift + U produces: E: 55.911268 8 04 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 56.119280 8 04 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 56.599319 8 04 30 00 00 00 01 00 00 E: 56.703282 8 04 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 56.815278 8 04 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 E: 56.823255 8 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 It looks suspicious that the keypress is not registered.

The output is inline. That being said, I'm aware that re-firing the keypress events myself does not belong in a HID driver, but I'm eager to work on this being massaged into something proper for inclusion.
