Thanks for the clarification. I was not clear when I wrote "key presses". I want
the message to disappear, when I press a key on the keyboard, so for instance,
if I move in the application or type characters, or even when using the keyboard
table navigation commands. I'm fine with the behaviour when using the braille
keys.

Thanks
Sebastian
