Keys not repeating on one character

I posted this to the key maps forum, but found out that broadcasting and key maps are different. Anyway, I have five characters that I'm multiboxing in WoW. When I'm playing as the fifth character, several of my buttons (1-6 at least) only get sent to my fourth character. Also, it seems that no matter which set of characters I use, the problem persists. I can't seem to remember where in ISBoxer I can go to reconfigure the keyboard number buttons (1 through =) or how to fix this problem. I've clicked on just about everything I can think of in ISboxer. Please help!

Regardless of whether it's Broadcasting Mode or Key Maps, we will need to see your configuration in order to help you with this. http://isboxer.com/wiki/Configuration_Sharing

I would assume that it really is the Key Maps rather than Broadcasting Mode, and that the buttons 1-6 themselves aren't the problem but rather the auto-assist built into the keys may not work from a specific window. This would most likely be due to in-game Key Bindings configured with Ctrl+Shift+Backspace in the windows that don't assist the 5th window. Ctrl+Shift+Backspace should assist window 5. You can try pressing this key combination yourself in each window to see if it works -- go into window 5, target something, then go into the other windows and press Ctrl+Shift+Backspace and see if it picks up the target. If not, then the fix is to go into the Key Bindings screen in the game, find a box that isn't assigned a key and set it to Ctrl+Shift+Backspace, and then unbind it. FAQ: I recently set a key binding in the game and now assist doesn't work? (note that this FAQ entry describes this where they won't assist window 1, for which the hotkey is Shift+Backspace instead of Ctrl+Shift+Backspace)
