Resolution Note:
This is by design. Currently it is not possible on iOS/tvOS to detect key up events from external (e.g. Bluetooth) keyboards. We made a feature request for Apple developers. If this feature will be implemented we will update our implementation in the future but at the moment current workaround (although has limited accuracy) is the only possible approach.
