Problem

The Beep when key is rejected option for Slow Keys is not working correctly when I do the following:

When you enable the Mouse Keys feature, the 9 key on the numeric keypad should move the mouse pointer upwards and diagonally to the right. However, the 9 key moves the pointer straight upwards.

Solution

Press the 8 key to move the pointer upwards and press the 6 key to move the pointer to the right.
