Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/1950

What happened?

Both client and server are linux mint. some times, when the client computer is logged off/screenlock . On resuming the system, it behaves erratically, as if some keys are already pressed(mostly ctrl/shift). key mapping seems to be changed, even logging in becomes a challenge at times. so have to restart the system. key and mouse operations dont correspond rightly.
If i take care to stop barrier on client system, before logOff/screenLock/suspend, then on resuming, when i resume Barrier, then there is no issue.
This issue happens only on the client system.
