The same for me. It appears to be connected with old
https://code.google.com/p/semicomplete/source/detail?r=2952&path=/xdotool/xdo.c
There, you reproduced the error by launching while cycle. Then randomly hold
Control or I press "c". You see, it writes small letters-c but finally, the
Control joins C and the command is interrupted (even though I didnt press them
together). From now, every key I press is combined with Control modifier.
Hitting Control *will* clear the key-down state.
~$ while true; do xdotool key --clearmodifiers ctrl+l ; sleep 0.2; done
^L^L^L^Lc^L^L^Lf^L^L^L^L^L^Lc^L^L^L^L^L^L^L^C
:~$ ^C
Sometimes, it continues writing l-letters like this:
~$ llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
