I found that strikes to F5, F6, and F10 were not seen at all by xev. I set out to see if there were any other undetected keys and found one labeled "F Lock". Once I depressed that, the other keys were detected and virtual terminals worked. I've never had an "F Lock" key before and didn't know it was a possibility. But that's probably all there was to it.
