I have a raspberry pi-4 that I control from a laptop using noVNC in a web browser. The OS on the Pi used to be raspbian but now I am running under ArchLinux ARM. Under both OS's the caps lock key would occasionally get stuck in the wrong direction. That is, unshifted keypresses on the laptop keyboard would be capitalized and shifted ones would be lower-case. This is very annoying. It's only on the Pi. Keypresses not made in the noVNC window of the browser all produce the keys with proper shift.
How might I fix this? I've tried running
xmodmap -e "remove lock = Caps_Lock"
but it does nothing. This leads me to think that the problem must be in noVNC. Is there some sort of setting in noVNC that I can use to unstick it? As of now, my only recourse is to reboot the Pi.

I just discovered a much less annoying workaround. There is a disconnect button at the bottom of the little pullout tab on the left of the noVNC window that disconnects noVNC and after reconnecting, it works correctly.
