Skype plays havoc on keyboard when screen sharing is remotely initiated during a call. It possibly hates my Lenovo TP E540, though other systems are affected too (see URL link above). The keyboard is lost for several seconds but still getting input in the background; the buffer is then flushed at once, resulting in all sort of weirdness. The keyboard remains "mute" in X: I can switch to a pty console and try recover -- restarting X might fix the issue, sometimes a reboot is required. Meanwhile, the mouse seems OK. Reported upstream, see URL above. Similar Manjaro issue here: <https://forum.manjaro.org/t/skypeforlinux-keyboard-issues-after-call/116972> It looks like "net-im/teams-1.3.00.5153" plays the same nasty trick :-( To be verified. Screen sharing locally initiated works fine. No clue, apart from dmesg showing (possibly unrelated as this cr*p freezes frequently): segfault at 7f0bf27fc9d0 ip 00007f0c3a61322e sp 00007ffeeb39b290 error 4 in libpthread-2.30.so[7f0c3a610000+f000] Jun 09 11:36:04 [kernel] Code: 54 24 f8 c3 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 41 57 41 56 41 55 41 54 55 53 48 83 ec 78 64 48 8b 04 25 28 00 00 00 48 89 44 24 68 31 c0 <8b> 87 d0 02 00 00 85 c0 0f 88 14 02 00 00 49 89 ff 48 39 bf 28 06 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start or answer a call. 2. Have the other party share their screen (remote screen sharing). Actual Results: Keyboard lost, mouse OK. Keyboard input flushed after many seconds. Weirdness on screen, such as random characters in terminals, crazy WM switching (app window, etc.) Expected Results: None of the above ;-) Portage 2.3.99 (python 3.7.7-final-0,

I lost connection 3 times today when the other side tried to share his screen. Could be related.
I've just pushed 8.61.0.95, please give that a try.
No more reports.
