Regression

Yes

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

Input

-

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

    Did we have a temporary solution for this issue? It's really annoying.

    How does this happen? it's as though there's no QA testing for mac releases lately. v2021.1.22 became completely unusable on macs with extremely bad frame rate stuttering in the editor, and now basic typing in the editor doesn't work in macs. I'm sure the teams are working hard and QA is happening, but is obviously not thorough enough or under resourced. Something so fundamental as this is so confusing how it can make it into a production build, frankly it's pretty embarrassing.

    This is still an issue. The editor only updates with keystrokes and mouse movement. So if you type a letter or change a value using an arrow button, it won't show until you make another input via keyboard or mouse.

    I am experiencing this in 2021.1.27, along with a delay in up/down arrow keys updating in the hierarchy, AND frequently the Scene view is delayed in showing the selected object till the cursor is over the view.

    Is there a workaround for 2021.2.0f1 for before the fix is available?
