Alesis Q25 keyboard recognized as control surface

Every time I plug in my Alesis Q25, or when the computer wakes from sleep, Logic recognizes the keyboard as a control surface. No events are sent to the selected MIDI track. Instead MIDI events are taken by Logic to resize windows and such.

I have to delete this as a control surface in the Control Surface Setup dialog, and then it works as a keyboard. But then every time the computer wakes up from sleep, I have to do it again.

I have also tried deleting the preferences file to force it to be rebuilt per this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8343179

But the problem just persists. Super annoying, all the more so because when deleting it, it prompts "Do you really want to delete all selected devices permanently? Undo is not possible for this action." Well, I wish I COULD delete it permanently, but it comes back every time.
