A quick look would suggest it's not a skin issue - the skin specifies in home.xml that control 9000 is the default control and should always be focused when that window is loaded (in all the home screen layouts, control 9000 is the main menu). Kodi would log it if it wasn't able to focus it, but there's no sign of that in the logs.
One thing I can see in the logs is that you're moving the mouse before the skin has loaded - it's an outside possibility, but there's a chance that those mouse movements are actually taking the focus away from the controls and therefore requiring you to put the focus back before you can use the keyboard... (Though my experience is that when the focus has been moved off of any control in that way, pressing a direction button on the keyboard should put the focus onto the default control. However, it's my best guess!)
