Same problem. Here’s what I posted:

I never tried what the second poster adviced me with, but I noticed hitting Esc before alt-tabbing seems to help.

Thank you for your reply. You’re offering nice information and I’m kind of glad I find other people with the same problem.

However, I’m still wondering if there’s someone who has pinpointed the problem and come up with a solution.

EDIT: It seems like Alt-Tabbing doesn’t cause the issue if I open the Menu first by hitting Esc.

When I Alt-Tab from the game, the keyboard stops responding when in-game. I’m able to type in the chat if I open it with my mouse, but Enter and Backspace still won’t respond in addition to no keys working outside of chat.

This same thing occurs when I change the profile on my Logitech G700 mouse.

To fix the problem I have to shut down the client and log in again.
Ideas on causes/fixes?
