This can happen also due to a faulty touchscreen (or driver).

Possible debugging strategy: Try "xev" in order to see if events are emitted, kill plasma-keyboardcontainer (CTRL+ESC), and see if the event flood persists

Did you find a way to reliably reproduce this problem?

its on meego and i can reproduce it every time.
Comment 3 Sebastian Kügler 2011-07-01 10:12:49 UTC 
Is it using Maliit on Meego, or the Plasmaboard? (The keyboard that is shipped with Plasma in kdeplasma-addons?)
Comment 4 Fania Bremmer 2011-07-18 15:48:47 UTC 
tested, fixed
