I get it with any qemu guest that starts in an X window.  For example:
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive 
file=kfreebsd-amd64,index=0,media=disk,cache=writeback,aio=native -drive 
file=/dev/sr0,index=1,media=cdrom -boot c -redir tcp:2232::22 -m 1024 
-machine accel=kvm,kernel_irqchip=on -cpu host -net 
user,hostname=qemu.bandsman.co.uk -net nic,model=e1000 -k en-us

 So to be clear there are 3 machines involved here:

1) the guest
2) the host
3) the machine I've ssh'd in to the host from

I presume it's the keyboard of machine 3 you're talking about.  I've had 
that whatever it is - PC running Linux and MACOS/X with an Apple 
keyboard all exhibit it.
Machine 2 is a PC running Debian Linux.

Any key.

This is with bleading edge.
