I picked up type 3 cover using Staples 20% off, Nice... still valid till 7/5. I have been using the type 2 prior to the type 3. I have not seen the issue you mentioned on neither type 2 or type 3. I know it is not helping you, I just want to let you know that I don't see the issue.
Type Cover Issue

My take: You shouldn't have to do anything to get the type cover to work. It should just work. It seems like you have tried many different things. If this was a non-Microsoft keyboard, then I would lean toward the driver. At this point, I would think it is HW issue. It might be your SF3 or it might just be that specific type cover. It could be bad contact. I would bring your device to local Microsoft store or Best Buy and test it out.
Alright, I'm planning to visit a place with a Microsoft Store next week anyways. I'll bring it have them check then. Thanks again everyone for all the advice and help. Man, I really like this Surface too. Ah well, I guess there were gonna be some problems with a big roll out.
Thoughts? I've refreshed and rebuilt the Surface Pro 3. I have had our Vendor send a replacement surface and type cover and still no luck. The driver will not install. I assume bad hardware..... I try manually installing the Surface Type Cover Filter Device Driver and I get "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

I bought my SP3 and keyboard online, they will take care of you in the store so don't worry about that, just bring your receipt.
Also, do yourself a favor and make an appointment online, it's easy to do, but it will save you a ton of time, especially as they are really busy during weekends.
