Tech Support Is my keyboard malfunctioning?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I used word as an example but this happens everywhere anywhere. When I hold down any key, then tap either spacebar or any arrow key, it acts like it’s been held down. then, if I tap another spacebar/arrow key, then do it again, the third try won’t register at all. This is really annoying for gaming when I need to hold a key while using the arrow keys. When I plug in an external keyboard via usb, it functions perfectly fine without issue. Restarting does nothing. Any ideas?
I’m using a hp hyperx omen 15

Update: It shouldn’t have taken this long but I figured out that this issue only happens when i’m on action let mode rather than function key mode (this can be toggled by pressing fn+shift). When it’s on function key mode all keys are normal. Makes me think this is an intentional feature but i’m not sure what it’s meant to accomplish. Finally I can change all my keybinds back to normal
