Keyboard going haywire when Magic Mouse 2 is connected

Hello,


With the release of mouse support for ipadOS, I was of course very excited to finally be able to use a mouse on my iPad. I bought a Magic Mouse 2 and started using it. I now use it together with my Magic Keyboard.


Unfortunately, a bug seems to exist where, at random moments, the keyboard seems to get stuck on the Command-Tab combination and scroll through all my apps or input from my keyboard is not received/significantly delayed (Multiple seconds).


If I turn the keyboard off and on again, it sometimes fixes the problem. If I re-pair it over bluetooth, it sometimes fixes the problem. The one thing that fixes the issue every time is turning off my Magic Mouse 2. The instant I turn it off, the keyboard is back to normal and stays that way until I reconnect it again. Sometimes it'll work, and sometimes it'll break again.


Has anyone experienced similar issues or knows of a fix?
