For those of you just joining the thread, the bug is that if you hit Ctrl-r to reload the document and get prompted "REPOST DATA?" and if you hit the space bar on OK or tab-enter quickly or click at the same time, sound keeps playing fine, you can move the cursor but you are not able to click on anything or keyboard out. In fact, if I hit Caps-Lock or NumLock the keyboard light doesn't even register. > > How reproducible is it?
