I've seen this issue as well.  I've just installed kubuntu 9.04
[previously running kubuntu 7.10].  The test case I have may be a little
easier to run.  I use .Xmodmap to swap the CAPS and CTRL keys to
resemble a Sun keyboard.  My .Xmodmap file follows:

<---- [.Xmodmap] ---->
remove Lock      = Caps_Lock
remove Control   = Control_L
keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock
add    Lock      = Caps_Lock
add    Control   = Control_L
</---- [.Xmodmap] ---->

If you put this file in your home account- logout- then back in- your
CAPS-LCK and LEFT-CTRL keys should be swapped.  The caps lock light on
your keyboard should now be toggled with the CTRL key.
