#14994: F keys not working properly in some games

--------------------------+-------------------------
 I have been enjoying ScummVM to play some childhood games and I've found
 that the F keys in some games such as Sierra games don't seem to work
 properly.

 I am using a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, an Android based retro gaming console.
 It runs Android 13, and I am using ScummVM 2.8.0 loaded from Google Play
 store.  I am attempting to the overlay virtual keyboard.

 For example, in Space Quest III, there is a part of the game where you are
 in Monolith Burger and after you order your meal you have to press F5 to
 exit.  This is also the key the game uses to save in the Esc menu.
 Anyway, when you press F5 on the virtual keyboard, it keeps bringing up
 the ScummVM save/load screen.  I went into game options and saw that F5 +
 Left Shoulder was mapped to Game Menu.  I cleared the mapping so that only
 Left Shoulder was mapped.  F5 is not mapped to anything else, however, it
 will still not work and you cannot progress in the game past this point.

 I am including a screenshot as well as the same game file which happens
 just before the problem.  From loading the save game, simply walk up to
 the counter, and you'll see at the bottom you have to press F5 to exit.
 Observe, you cannot use the onscreen overlay keyboard to get past it.
 Please advise.  Thanks
