Details

there is no keyboard input in the gdm login screen, but mouse works fine. So I can not type my password. Most of the time keyboard works after restarting again. Unfortunately I don’t have a repo case. It's strange, it happens infrequent, maybe 1 of 10 times.
There are no other problems with my keyboard so far, works on other OS.
I also get the “A stop job is running for User Manager for UID 120 (GDM)” message on shutdown/restart sometimes. Could this be related?


Additional info:
4.16.13-1-ARCH
gdm 3.28.1
Keyboard: Corsair k70 Lux RGB


Steps to reproduce:
go to login screen after startup or reboot
This task depends upon
