Beware alt-tab

32 mage, in thousand needles, slightly overlevelled for some last quests, unfortunately the ones high up. I quickly alt-tab to mess with YouTube and when I alt-tab back into wow, I immediately start running forward with no keyboard or mouse response. I see myself running off the cliff, I try to press slow fall, or blink but alas. My keyboard came back up first, and my mouse didn’t come back till I unplugged it and back… but both were way too late. If this happened anywhere else I’d probably be fine, but happening atop a cliff was a death sentence.

Anyways. ChatGPT thinks it’s a combo of switching from game to YouTube can cause my kvm switch to re-connect with peripherals. But this hasn’t been a problem before! Any other takes or feedback on kvm switches and alt-tabs?
