Yeah, those keyboard wires are like antennas carrying 'dirty' digital key scanning signals that can radiate into the analog electronics... if you've ever brought an old style LED/fluorescent calculator near an AM radio, you will get the idea. It would likely be a steady 'scanning'/buzzy noise...

Otherwise, it only takes one corroded connection at the points previously mentioned, to cause all sorts of intermittents & glitches...
