pixture of my keyboard listed in the mouse section

SUMMARY
My keyboard is recognized as a mouse on Wayland.
No keyboard input is possible.
Enabling/Disabling the device doesnt make a difference.

This is probably because of the following device:
Device:           Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600
Kernel:           /dev/input/event16
Group:            3
Seat:             seat0, default
Capabilities:     keyboard pointer 
Tap-to-click:     n/a
Tap-and-drag:     n/a
Tap drag lock:    n/a
Left-handed:      n/a
Nat.scrolling:    disabled
Middle emulation: n/a
Calibration:      n/a
Scroll methods:   none
Click methods:    none
Disable-w-typing: n/a
Accel profiles:   n/a
Rotation:         n/a

Unfortunately the device is identifying itself as a mouse (see the word "pointer"). There's nothing we can feasibly do here.
