Holding down keys stops working after ~20 sec

I am using an MSI wireless keyboard (model RF1430), and my keyboard works fine when I hold down keys for a short amount of time. However, when I hold down a key for longer than ~20 sec, it stops working until I press it again. This happens on all the programs I've tried, and it is very annoying when I play video games. Is this a hardware issue or can I fix it in settings?

This question is one of 2 reports of the same problem:
