Keyboard  won't work in RDP sessions

Windows 8.1 x64

When using mstsc to connect to another computer, the keyboard doesn't work at all(even caps/num/scroll lock doesn't work) in the RD session.

(The  language bar on the local desktop will disappear when focus is given to the RD session. )

When using teamviewer to connect to another computer, keyboard works fine.

(The  language bar on the local desktop will NOT disappear when focus is given to the teamviewer session. )

Whenever this happens to me, I open a RUN box on the local computer whilst RDP open, and type some random text.

Usually, for me at least, this fixes keyboard issues
