The alert that you report is typically characteristic of a faulty folio keyboard. The electrical connections that pass though the flexible fabric hinges typically fracture - this usually resulting in errors and/or the on-screen notification that you see. 


If the folio keyboard is faulty, whilst the Keyboard does not use Bluetooth, it is not inconceivable that a malfunction may affect other peripheral devices. I suggest that you remove the keyboard - and retest your Pencil.


The Smart folio keyboard itself is not repairable. The only remedy is replacement of the keyboard.
