Hello Pachel_2001,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with your Mac and using a third-party keyboard. It's possible the device is not waking up until you type your password in. To test, try turning the third-party keyboard off, then back on, waiting a moment, then trying to type the password in.


If that doesn't work, since your USB keyboard works properly, it may be a setting or some other update the keyboard needs. You may need to ask the manufacturer for assistance: Contact a third-party vendor - Apple Support


To test, do you or a friend or family member have an Apple Magic Keyboard to pair and test with? This will check if there are issues logging in with an Apple Bluetooth paired Magic keyboard, isolating the computer and macOS. Thanks.
