I have only used my My K10 HE Pro on my Omarchy Linux machine, and it started with the repeating tilde problem. Next, I reset to factory defaults (FN+j+z), though I had made zero alterations to the keyboard. Red flashing backlight confirmed the reset.Immediately after, the tilde key quit working alt
