FileVault issue with keyboard

Hey Everyone,


I have had an issue that was a bit more extreme today. It appears there is an annoying bug in FileVault that will disable the MBP keyboard when you try to put in a password. The trackpad didn't really work, but my external USB would move for tiny snippets of time and would give a jumpy feel that made it unusable. I had to do the option to disable filevault to actually be able to type my password and that seemed to fix the issue. This seems like a pretty serious issue to me. I'd like to renable the file vault, but not if I have to do this every time.


The keyboard is obviously the built in one on the MBP.

MacOS Sierra 10.12.1
