Yes, I have just confirmed that this was a pve-2.2 bug only. Works here
without this change.

I have come to the conclusion that your keyboard layout in the VM
(CentOS 6) might be like this:
Default: us
Your user: nl

The default keyboard is configured here: /etc/sysconfig/keyboard
Try this:
KEYBOARDTYPE="pc"
KEYTABLE="nl"

After this change the VM must be rebooted.
