Hi,

I believe that Apple discourages connecting keyboards through USB hubs.  In the 
past, such a configuration could actually cause significant erratic behaviour 
and sometimes other very undesirable OS difficulties.  This was years ago so 
it's possible that things have changed but I would recommend that you always 
leave the keyboard connected directly and use the USB hub for non-essential 
devices.

Later...
