If you harvested a male plug from a USB-A to USB-C cable, that plug has the wrong resistor configuration for what you want to do here.
The A-to-C cable has a single resistor called an Rp, with a value of 56 kΩ, tied between the CC pin and the Vbus pin. The cable is used to convert a USB-A power source (like a phone charger) and data host (like your PC's USB-A port) to a connect to a USB-C sink like your phone.
In this case, you actually want the USB-C port on your phone to act as a power source, so your keyboard needs a pull-down resistor, in the spec called a Rd resistor, with value 5.1 kΩ, sitting between CC and Gnd.
In the parlance of the USB Type-C spec, your A-to-C cable was a "Legacy Host Adapter" whereas what you needed to harvest from is a "Legacy Device Adapter"
Basically, if you took this cable, and sliced off the C plug and spliced like you did, it'll probably work:
