Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/324

Operating Systems

Server: OsX High sierra

Client: OsX mojave

Barrier Version

2.1.0-Release from Brew

Steps to reproduce bug

On regular OSx, pressing some keys for a second shows a menu and allow to select for alternate key values, like pressing E will allow to add accentuated keys.

When using Barriere, this feature is not working and instead I get repeated key-press (like eeeeeeee)
