I got a TT eSports mechanical keyboard. There are two issues I still cannot resolve: Caps Lock LED doesn't work, and Ctrl+Alt+Fn combos do not work either.
I am aware of a solution to use `kbd_mode -u`, which does indeed properly enable both caps lock LED and Ctrl+Alt+Fn, but it also has unintended consequences, such as Alt+Fn also switches VT, when it should not. So, pressing Alt+F2 instead of producing "Enter a command" dialog, switches me to terminal instead. Read more in another post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=180747
With that said, I have another arch linux machine, which has a regular keyboard attached. It has no such problems whatsoever, which tells me there is something about the mechanical gaming keyboards which operates differently. Maybe I should be using some other keymap model?
If anybody uses mechanical gaming keyboard here, can you share what is your setup (if it works, of course)

I guess I forgot to post how I actually fixed it. The keyboard started to work normally after I plugged it into a PS/2 port via connector.
