I have a keyboard produced by Samsung Co named as Plemoax. It has additional USB ports. It disconnects occasionally while using NetBSD 4.99.7X, regardless i386 or amd64 one. I havent experienced same problem while using ubuntu and opensuse.
Because it happens rarely i just unplugged and replugged and it worked. Maybe, your keyboard has also additional usb ports, like this one?
