Resolution Note:
On Windows, raw input (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/inputdev/about-raw-input) messages for keyboard do not propagate to child windows if they're hosted in a different process. Since the new input system uses raw input for keyboard input. it receives no keyboard input when hosted inside another process.
As a workaround, you can call RegisterRawInputDevices (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-registerrawinputdevices) to register your WPF app HwndHost to receive keyboard RawInput, and then forward the WM_INPUT messages you receive in the WndProc to the hosted Unity process via SendMessageW (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-sendmessagew).
