 Well, it is possible. However, there are may be other explanations:
  -- some strange intellectual behaviour of the hardware (keyboard itself).
  -- some keyboard switching applet, that uses XTest to do that.


 At least this have some logic! It somehow blocks Shift+KP1 by releasing
Shift before sending KP1.

 Next simple thing: could you provide xkb dump?

 xkbcomp "$DISPLAY" /tmp/dump.xkb
