Mouse + audio freeze, game keeps running - looking for help/workarounds

I’m running into an issue where mouse input and audio freeze completely, while the game keeps running. Keyboard input still works.

  • If I close the game immediately, mouse input often recovers

  • If I wait too long, mouse stays dead until full system reboot

  • Happens both after some playtime and sometimes immediately on launch

  • CPU/GPU usage normal

This also happens without USB audio (tested HDMI/monitor + analog), so it doesn’t seem hardware- or USB-related.

This looks like a possible input/audio deadlock (render loop keeps running while input/audio lock up).

Has anyone seen this or found a workaround or specific setting that avoids it?
