Keyboard stops working.
I cannot find if this bug is listed but i am having trouble with my Logitech keyboard while playing.After a while all keys stop working on the keyboard the game is still playing using on screen tabs,buttons etc. But i cannot use the keyboard for anything ,even Ctrl+alt+Del will not work to get up the task manager. My only option is to do a hard power off from on off switch and reboot. When i return all keys are fine and if i replay poe its fine again at least until the next time it locks up.
Is anyone else having this problem or better yet found a way around it?

Is this happening with any other game?

It may be a hardware issue

Also, do you have any controllers plugged in causing an Input conflict? Or controller software?

Same here. Started happening today. Tested the keys on another game for an hour without problems. Switched back to PoE and had the issue 2mins in.
My keyboard lights turn on correctly but can't press windows key or ctrl alt del.

I just started having this issue. For me my a,q,~,1, Esc and probably Tab keys stop working. Issue starts up while playing and persists after the game is closed out but after a little bit of being closed the functionality returns.

Not a Logitech, but had a similar issue yesterday. Just restarted and all was well again... didn't think much of it.

If it happens again... will come back to report more specifics.
It start happening to me every 5 minutes of every poe 2 session. For me it affects W key the most so i just can not move correctly. It is really frustrating

I might have found a solution for this issue. Try connecting your keyboard and mouse to a USB 3.0 port instead of a USB 2.0 port. This problem is likely caused by the high polling rate of gaming keyboards, and it seems that PoE2 isn't fully optimized to handle it on slower USB connections.
I've also experienced this problem, except for me, while in game being AFK, the game turned off both my mouse and keyboard. Hopefully this comes to their attention as right now I think I'm not gonna touch the game for a while.

I have similar problem where the poe 2 occasionally crashes with the usb keyboard. I relocated the usb input to another usb interface not directly connected to the motherboard (any usb interface not from the backplate). So far it has been working "temporarily".

I have KVM Switch (USB hub with button to switch between 2 computers).

When I connect mouse and keyboard to switch and ALt-tab Poe2, I have a lot of mouse and keyboard lags. And in game i have keyboard disconnect randomly.

When I connect mouse and keyboard to motherboard - all ok.

So, if you have usb-hub - connect input devices to motherboard.

(Only with POE2)

POE 2 Developers, please fix this!
