The first Keyboard Input is Ignored and stored for later when renaming Assets causing all Keyboard Inputs to become mixed

Input

Oct 25, 2021

To reproduce:

1. Download the attached project "New Unity Project.zip" and open it in Unity
2. In Project view create a Folder or another Asset
3. Try to change its name

Expected Results: You can easily change Asset name and Unity Editor correctly detects Keyboard Input
Actual Results: First Keyboard Input is Ignored and Stored for later causing Asset renaming to become mixed

Notes:
- This issue only happens on macOS systems
- For example, if you press the "L" key on Keyboard, it becomes ignored, then if you press another Key like the "Delete", in Unity Editor you can see that the "L" symbol is printed, then you can press for example the "A" key and observe that the "L" symbol is deleted and if you press then Key like the "T" or another key, you can see that the "A" symbol is printed.
- Its sounds like the first Input is ignored and stored for later causing all Keyboard Inputs to become mixed

Reproducible on Unity 2021.2.0b17 and 2022.1.0a13
Not reproducible on Unity 2021.1.27f1, 2021.2.0b16 and 2022.1.0a12
Regression on Unity 2021.2.0b17 and 2022.1.0a13

Resolution Note (fix version 2022.1):

Fixed in: 2022.1.0a14

Recent Mac Metal editor change delayed frame updates by 1, affecting keyboard input lag - this is now fixed.

All you need is to hire an expert to help you accomplish that. If there’s any need to spy on your partner’s phone. From my experience I lacked evidence to confront my husband on my suspicion on his infidelity, until I came across ETHICALAHCKERS which many commend him of assisting them in their spying mission. So I contacted him and he provided me with access into his phone to view all text messages, call logs, WhatsApp messages and even her location. This evidence helped me move him off my life . I recommend you consult ETHICALHACKERS009 @ gmail com OR CALL/TEXT ‪+1 ( 7 1 6 ) 3 1 8 - 5 5 3 6 o r w h a t s a p p + 1 4 1 0 6 3 5 0 6 9 7 if you need access to your partner’s phone or any kind of hacking, they carry out all kinds of hacking job

NOTE: this is not fixed for 2021.2.1f (the currently available version), but a Unity QA rep told me that it's fixed as of 2021.2.2f (which is not released yet), so be sure to check back.

Also, looks below for ISASTELEPRESENCE's workaround in the meantime (thanks dude)

Also the issue is in 2022.1.X and 2021.2.X versions too. Even though this bug report says that it has been fixed in those versions.

Running Apple Silicon build with M1 Pro chip.

Issue still exists in Apple Silicon build, issue has not been fixed completely

Changing graphics API didn't work for me either.

OK, I had this problem too in 2021.2.f1.
Here's a workaround that I used:
Goto Project Settings
Select Windows, Mac, Linux
Go to Other Settings
Untick Auto Graphics API for Mac
Add OpenGLCore
Move OpenGLCore above Metal
Restart Unity

I hope it works for you too.

I'm also having a delay when listening for input using the new input system. Press a gamepad button, it doesn't show up in the list. Press another button, and the first one you pushed shows up in the list.
