Soak the CC on the mains again, trying at intervals to start from the keyboard.
What exactly is this doing? Is it charging capacitors? If so, is it aging capacitors which have leaked and therefore cannot hold a reliable charge? It certainly acts like an old car battery that no longer maintains a proper charge. The car will start, but not reliably and only after sitting for a while, until eventually it won't even hold the minimum charge necessary to start it at all.
