code-server: Typing not working
code-serverversion: 1.32.0-310- OS Version: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS & Kernel 4.15.0-1036-azure
Description
Firstly, sometimes when I open a new terminal the editor stop recording my keystrokes (it’s not because focusing), no matter what I type it’s not doing anything, I can still select the code and even delete it but I cannot add nothing. Sometimes the problem is solved by closing the terminal.
I had running it on an azure container for like 3-4 days and I connected to it several times since then.
Steps to Reproduce
(Not sure at 100%, sometimes it stops registering the keys suddenly)
- Create new terminal
- Type whatever in there
- Click back to text editor
- Try to type anything and doesn’t work. Only the backspace bar

This seems to workaround this issue:
If I disable selection clipboard, this issue seems to be gone.
This also appears to only affect Chrome. I just tested in Firefox Quantum 66.0.1 (64-bit) and it works fine, no loss of ability to type so far.

I have the same problems as described by others above, but also noticed if you highlight any text in the actual code editor you also lose the ability to type as well. The cursor still blinks to indicate focus, but until you deselect the text you cannot resume typing.
