Default Problems with MIDI Step Mode - Help Please

Hi,
I was just watching Kenny Gioia's video 'MIDI Step Recording in Reaper'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO_QBWBb6pk

A great video, as always, but I am having some problems getting step-mode to work.

1. I can hear the drum sounds in my drum plug in (MT Power Drumkit 2) if I use the Virtual Keyboard (I do not have a MIDI keyboard yet) if I hit a key on the keyboard when I am not in the MIDI track, but cannot use the Virtual Keyboard to record steps in the step mode.

So, I am using the Function keys.

2. One problem here is that I have to manually move the cursor/play head to the next chosen quantize point, using the arrow key, rather than the cursor automatically advancing to the next point.

3. Most important, although not insurmountable, is that I cannot hear the drum sounds when I hit the appropriate Function key. However, I can hear what I have created when I play back the MIDI part.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to remedy these problems?

Thanks.

Solution for the 'Virtual Midi Keyboard' issue is to right click on it and choose "send all keyboard input to Virtual Midi Keyboard"

About Fn keys can confirm, no sound. I'm up for the remedy too.
