Kivy on raspberry pi touchscreen not recognizing touch input

Question

I have kivy installed on a raspberry pi 3B with the official 7" touchscreen attached. The touchscreen its self works perfectly and touch input is working as expected in the desktop environment.

I can run code to show a kivy app and it displays fine but when I touch the touchscreen I get the following error in the terminal:

''' INFO: The key you just pressed is not recognized by SDL. To help get this fixed, please report this to the SDL forums/mailing list EVDEV KeyCode 330 '''

This happens on both pressing the display and lifting off. I have tried executing the app through both the CLI and through a terminal in the desktop environment. Nothing else is installed on the raspberry pi apart from the requirements for kivy. I have tried adding these three lines to ~/.kivy/config.ini as suggested elsewhere but it makes no difference.

''' mouse = mouse mtdev_%(name)s = probesysfs,provider=mtdev hid_%(name)s = probesysfs,provider=hidinput '''

How can I get the touchscreen to apply my touch inputs correctly in my kivy app?

Found an answer to my own question after some experimentation. It seems that when connecting to the raspberry pi via ssh, the touchscreen was sending strange event codes that SDL in kivy wasn't able to process but that raspian was. The issue can be fixed by not connecting to the rasperry pi by ssh.
