USB Keyboard with Trackpoint - FN Stuck?

I don't know what I've done, but the keyboard is acting like I'm pressing the FN key all the time, so I get a lovely assortment of numbers when I type. If I hold down the FN key myself and type, nothing happens and none of the actual function key functions work.

 

I tried the keyboard on multiple computers with the same problem, but for the sake of completeness, here is what I tried before that: I've updated, downgraded, uninstalled, reinstalled, etc all of the driver versions available and the problem persists. I also tried downloading the keyboard customization utility with the hope that it would magically reset whatever is wrong, but no such luck. I've also made sure there is no debris in the keyboard that would cause any issues. I also tried various USB ports.

 

Any recommendations on how to fix it? Or anybody have the same issue so I can feel less lonely?

Ahem, well don't I feel embarrassed. It was doing that because numlock was on. How about that!
