How can I get virtual keyboard keycodes events from TextField in Jetpack?

I tried the following, but it works only in english keyboard, on other language keyMap.getEvents(...) returns null

The goal is to send keyboard keycodes to remote device

@Composable
fun Screen() {
    TextField(value = "", onValueChange = {e ->
        val keyMap = KeyCharacterMap.load(KeyCharacterMap.VIRTUAL_KEYBOARD)
        println("keymap: $keyMap change: $e")
        val chars = e.toCharArray()

        for (char in chars) {
            val events = keyMap.getEvents(charArrayOf(char))
            if (!events.isNullOrEmpty()) {
                val event = events.first()
                println("keydown: $event")
            }

        }

    })
}

How would you want this to work for keyboards that use text composition?
