Remote button generate keyboard key strokes
#1
When I press a the KEY_UP, KEY_DOWN, KEY_LEFT or KEY_RIGHT button on my remote, the button appears to be pressed twice.

When looking at the ir-keytable output, all buttons work just fine, except the ones mentioned above.

It turns out that when I press e.g. the UP button, also a ^[[A is triggered, which corresponds to the the up key on the keyboard.
This happens with all four buttons.

Does anyone have a clue how I can fix this? The buttons are used a lot and browsing the menu is almost impossible with this bug.

The ir-keytable output:

$ sudo ir-keytable -t
