After you have followed the above it may seem obvious but...
Wait a few seconds - the keyboard should connect - then start typing.
When setting up my M1 iMac I found that there was a short delay before the keyboard first responded - too quick to start typing and the first part of my password would be truncated. Once up and running no keypress delay.
If it's new, it's under warranty. Contact Apple for it to be repaired.
