Example of issue happening

Description of problem:
When I exit overview or switch workspaces, the character ± will be continuously typed if the new workspace is focused on an electron application.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
GNOME 44.3

How reproducible:
Occationally starts happening when I switch to an electron application, once it happens, it keeps happening until I logout or restart

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Switch to an electron application with 3 finger swipe or super+mouse scroll
2. Occationally, the character ± will start to be typed on the text field continuously
3. Once this happens once, it keeps happening every time

Actual results:
The character ± will be continuously typed if the new workspace is focused on an electron application.

Expected results:
I switch to the new workspace or exit overview, without anything more happening

This component is maintained by the GNOME project. Issues with it should be reported directly to GNOME at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/.

This issue should only be kept open if it:

1. Relates to Fedora packaging or integration with other Fedora components
2. Is required for Fedora release processes, such as blocker bugs and freeze exceptions

If this issue isn't needed for either of these two reasons, please:

 * create an issue with GNOME
 * add a link to the GNOME issue here
 * close this issue as CLOSED/UPSTREAM

Thank you!
