Weird. On my system, if I replay your logs, I see 4 new nodes:
/dev/input/event21:	Microsoft Surface Keyboard Keyboard
/dev/input/event22:	Microsoft Surface Keyboard Consumer Control
/dev/input/event23:	Microsoft Surface Keyboard Touchpad
/dev/input/event24:	Microsoft Surface Keyboard Keyboard

Can you attach the dmesg when plugging in the type cover?

Cheers,
Benjamin
