Platform:	Epic
Additional Notes & Comments:	Not set

Steps to Reproduce

1. Tab out of the game to another tab preferably google chrome
2. Tab back in
3. If it doesn't work the first time repeat the steps

Explanation

I have 2 monitors, when I'm waiting in queue I watch youtube on one and then when the game starts I tab back. Sometimes when I tab back in the game doesn't register anything i.e. mouse movements and keyboard inputs, but it does register 'escape', the fix to this has been 'ctrl+alt+del'. Recently when this happened it did register mouse movements, but no keyboard inputs at all and the quick fix didn't work either. I ended up being matchmaking banned. After closing the game from this issue I got a crash report, and I've also been crashing a lot more recently I'm not sure why. I don't know if this matters, but I have a AMD gpu and AMD cpu.
