Title:
keyboard and mouse input stops working in the gnome shell
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I've recorded the bug and uploaded privately to youtube:
In this video you can see the steps to recreate the bug:
-> https://youtu.be/gSEonR2hREs
Steps (in this case):
- Make an app folder
- Open it
- Drag the application outside the folder
- Without closing the folder, right click on the application icon, and then
click in an empty space inside the folder. Repeat this until the folder closes
itself automatically.
- Now any program will ignore the keyboard shortcuts, I installed "screenkey"
so you can see that the keyboard is working normally.
In this one you can see nautilus ignoring all my input (keyboard shortcuts
and mouse clicks), this behavior is present in all the other apps:

Also, I can recover the control if I click on the top right button, the
activities overview, but everuthing stops working if I exit the activities

[ The workaround was logging out and logging back again. ]
