3B1 only echoes one character for every several typed

[Prentiss Riddle]

Description: The 3B1 only echoes one character for every several typed
at the console.  Apparently most of the characters typed are in fact
received, but only a few are echoed.  A reboot fixes the problem. 

This happens to us intermittently on several of our machines (running
3.5, if it makes a difference).  Is this a known problem?  Can anyone
offer an explanation or a fix? 

Please reply by mail and I will summarize if there is interest.
