System Information
Operating system: Fedora Linux (Wayland Gnome 45.3)
Graphics card: AMD

Blender Version
Broken: at least since 3.4.0 (233c0d31)q - 4.0.2, something similar happens in 3.3.1 ( c0e116d3) but after a short while after the first click in the new window it starts working, 3.6.0 crashes when I try it there
Worked: ?

Short description of error
When using the D key for annotations. Pressing D when hovering the other window without clicking it first, or keeping D pressed when switching between windows both result in Blender thinking D is not pressed until D is released and pressed again.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible).

Press F11 and place it alongside the original Blender window

CASE 1
Press the D key and draw in one of the windows
Release the D key and move the cursor over to the other window
Press the D key and try to draw

CASE 2
Press the D key and draw in one of the windows
Keep holding the D key and move the cursor over to the other window
Try to draw in the other window
Still keep pressing the D key and move the cursor back to the original window
Try to draw in the original window

Hi, thanks for the report. This is not linux/wayland specific. Window is not set to active immediately when you move mouse over it. Hence D key is not detected.

Windows supports auto-focus (switches active window after 50ms hover time): defd95afcd
I'm not aware of linux/wayland support. @ideasman42 , can you check?
