The test *expects* to receive Insert (not 0) even if numlock is on ? Why is that ?

It isn't really mentioned but this about Robot, isn't it ?
What happens if a user types directly ? 

Can you please put an evaluation in the bug report.
Also is this a regression of JDK-8351907 ? Looks that way since it is reported as working in JDK 25 b23.
