I have a Raspberry Pi 3 that is running an application using Kivy. There is a USB keyboard connected to allow text input within the application. Every time I type in a text box the letters are double typed. If I press and hold a key, the letter will double type as well. Outside of the application, the keyboard works normally (does not double type letters). It also works normally if I run the application on my PC. How do I prevent my keyboard from double typing within the application?

The config.ini file for kivy had an error. This file was located in the .kivy folder.

Previously under the input section we had the following lines:

[input]
mouse = mouse
mtdev_%(name)s=probesysfs,provider=mtdev
hid_%(name)s=probesysfs,provider=hidinput
%(name)s=probesysfs,provider=hidinput

Removing the last line shown above solved the double typing error.
