It sounds like you have a USB keyboard and a USB mouse (at least
internally, if not externally). When you created a USB qube, you
removed your (probably sole) USB controller from dom0 and instead
delegated it to your USB qube. So, now your keyboard and mouse only
work inside that USB qube.

I haven't experienced this issue firsthand on Qubes, but from what I
understand:

If you unplug your USB mouse and plug it back in again, you should be
prompted to enable the mouse input proxy (unless you were already
prompted earlier and declined).

Keyboard input is more difficult, since plugging in a USB keyboard
doesn't automatically prompt you to enable the keyboard proxy (last I
heard, anyway). If you can temporarily attach a PS/2 keyboard, for
example, the solution is to either disable the USB qube (which you can
actually do with just the mouse), then to unhide the USB controller
from dom0 (which requires the keyboard), or, alternatively, to enable
the keyboard input proxy in dom0.

You should be aware that enabling the keyboard input proxy in dom0
(and, to a lesser extent, the mouse input proxy) can be very
dangerous, since it gives your USB qube great power -- potentially
control of the entire system.

Perhaps someone who has dealt with these issues on Qubes 3.2 will be
able to speak from experience.
