problem with keyboard or key mappings

I'm running OS X 10.5.6 on a macbook. All of a sudden, it seems like my ESC key has stopped working, or not working as expected. I first noticed in when using vi in the terminal. ESC does not switch modes in vi anymore, I have to press CONTROL ESC (so the ESC key still functions). This is happening everywhere in OS X, as far as I can tell. How do I reset key mappings or determine what the cause of this is? I don't believe it's a hardware issue, as the ESC key is functioning with other combinations of keys.

Any help is apprecited,

Wayne
