If you are going to modify your code, you should do a check
something like this before calling single-key-description:
  (map-keymap #'(lambda (event definition)
                  (if (and (integerp event) (generic-char-p event))
                      ;; do something reasonable for a
                      ;; generic character.
[...]

Then, your code should be free from the change of
single-key-description.
