I would suggest writing a very small test program in C using SDL. You 
can find some suitable example code at 
http://www.libsdl.org/intro.en/usingevents.html

Compile it with gcc, and use it to test and see if this problem affects 
the underlying SDL library when python and pygame are not involved.

That will narrow down where the problem is.
