Ubuntu – Keyboard not responding on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

18.04keyboard

So after upgrading to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, the keyboard is not responding properly. Although at the boot-up when I have to type my password for disk encryption, it works fine. But after login to Ubuntu, it doesn’t. For example, backspace doesn't respond to me pressing it. Sometimes it does but often it stops responding at all. Like that, the number on top of the keyboard also stop responding however at the bootup it works fine.
