super key (windows key) gets stuck in "pressed" on client #207

Description

Operating Systems

Arch Linux

Barrier Version

2.1.0

Steps to reproduce bug

  1. Connect one arch client to one arch server
  2. Wait, using super key occasionally
  3. Client eventually gets stuck with mod key pressed, nothing will make it un-press for long, control+alt+delete followed by escape does, but then it auto-presses again a few seconds later.
  4. Cannot type in terminal or click on things as many keys and clicks are special when combined with the super key.

Other info

This is 2 fresh barrier installs on 2 fresh arch linux installs. Both are using awesome windows manager which uses the super key heavily. It works for a few seconds, but then gets stuck in down position, even if you do not do anything. rebooting is the only way to make it stop, even killing the barrier client does not make the keypress stop. Keypress never starts or gets stuck if barrier is never loaded.
