Apple Magic Keyboard A1843

On June 5, 2017, Apple released the Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad (A1843) to replace the wired Apple Keyboard which was discontinued that day. It was longer, and had an extended key layout with a numeric keypad and a different arrow key arrangement.

Bluetooth not working on Apple Magic Keyboard A1843

My Apple Magic Keyboard A1843 only works when connected via cable to my computer. Bluetooth doesn’t seem to function at all.

I’ve already tried the following:

Resetting the keyboard
Removing (“forgetting”) the device from Bluetooth settings on all other devices
Ensuring the keyboard is fully charged

*

Despite these steps, the keyboard still won’t connect wirelessly. Has anyone experienced this before or have suggestions on what else I could try?
