Is there something special I have to do for vizard embedded to get mouse and keyboard?

I need to embed my vizard window in a WPF control. I adapted this tutorial and this one(thanks farshizzo) to suit and made a nice control that starts up a vizard script and passes the handle to the window I've created as the first paramater. The script, if it sees the first parameter, takes that to be a window handle and embeds itself in that window. It almost entirely works.

However, I can't seem to get input to go through. Microsoft's tutorial works just fine with their own listbox, but I'm not sure if vizard's input is handled differently.
I know the script itself is properly receiving input. If I run this script with the only difference being that it isn't embedded, it responds properly to mouse and keyboard input.
I know vizard isn't hanging or blocked out of input: The ball spins, and if I check the keyboard state manually (e.g., viz.key.isDown(' ', True)), I can see if keys are up or down. onkeydown doesn't seem to work, however.
p/invoking win32's setfocus does not appear to do anything.

here's the vizard script:

import viz
import vizact


viz.add('tut_ground.wrl')
ball = viz.add('ball.wrl',pos=(0,1.8,2))
ball.add(vizact.spin(0,1,0,90))

def mytimer(num):
	if num is 0:
		ball.setPosition(0, 1.8, 4)
	elif num is 1:
		if viz.key.isDown(' ', True):
			ball.setPosition(0, 1.8, 3)

vizact.ontimer(0.1666, mytimer, 1)
vizact.ontimer(1.5, mytimer, 0)
vizact.onkeydown('b', ball.setPosition, [0,1.8,5])

if(len(sys.argv) > 1):
	viz.go(viz.EMBEDDED, window=int(sys.argv[1]))
	while True:
		viz.updateframe()
else:
	viz.go()

and here's the vizard box control:
