Full power off-on cycle (not just USB reset) may be initiated by
uhubctl. The question is whether USB hubs on the motherboard support
per-port power control.
Some keyboards may be rather sensitive to USB port

I have that problem occasionally. I just unplug the USB connector the
declared as a modifier for this purpose.
Notice that KDE likely overrides /etc/default/keyboard by values saved
on first login. You either need to disable it or to configure keyboard
namely in KDE.
As David wrote, you can not use arbitrary xkb options. If you do not
like altwin:prtsc_rwin
ere. This works for me,
so I don't need to worry how to use "Pause" instead.
I tried adding "Pause" anyway. If an XTerm has keyboard forus, instead
of launching the Application Menu, it prints a tilde. In other
applications, it does nothing. But Alt-Pause does work.
Thanks to Johannes for pointing this out.

How do I set up a windows key, for example "Pause" or "Ctrl-Pause"?
I tried

and

All keys are working.
For example:
xxd /dev/input/event12

The first step for you is to check if the keys stop working at all or
not.
So, you look at all the /dev/input/event* devices, and you do, with root
