There is no modifier "#9" in X. There are only the modifiers
shift, lock, control, and 1 to 5.

Probably one of the modifiers is locking, which changes the whole
keyboard layout.

First, check the output of
$ xmodmap -pke; xmodmap
None of the modifier keys should appear twice in either list.
Double check that the the target key appears in the modifier list.
if not, add it at the end of your $HOME/.Xmodmap file. If you do
not have such a file yet, generate it with
$ xmodmap -pk > "$HOME"/.Xmodmap
Then check the modifiers at the end of the file. For example, I
have
clear Shift
clear Lock
clear Control
clear Mod1
clear Mod2
clear Mod3
clear Mod4
clear Mod5
add Shift = Shift_L Shift_R
!add Lock = Caps_Lock
add Control = Control_L Control_R
!add Control = Control_L Multi_key
add Mod1 = Meta_L
!add Mod2 = Num_Lock
add Mod3 = Mode_switch
add Mod4 = Super_L Super_R
add Mod5 = Hyper_R

Style <windowname> NoButton 7
but that does not differentiate between active and inactive
windows.
