KB macro expansion

I am using Breevy to provide macro expansion. For example, when I type ".date" (withoout quotes,) I am expecting the text to be replaced with current date. Example: "Friday, September 8, 2017".

This does not happen in a remote session. Instead any macro term/phrase I type, it gets replaced with the letter "v" instead.  Has anyone experienced this with Breevy or any other keyboard macro expansion tool?  I know this works as expected in RDP.

 Thanks
