Keyboard shortcuts are disabled on second screen

I'm using a desktop with 2 screens. After recent Beta updates, the keyboard shortcuts are not working anymore when I'm working inside of a panel on my second screen, for example, if I have a timeline on my second screen. all shortcuts don't work at all (even play, delete...), while if I get back to the first screen and work within another timeline there everything works fine.

I'm on windows 10

Update: After restarting PPro the bug gets back.

I've found the exact description of the bug: if you have any floating panels, keyboard shortcuts and drag and drop operations won't work inside of those after restarting PPro, until you dock those to the main window and undock them again.

Sorry for the wait, but this issue should now be fixed with Premiere Pro 14.6 that was just released.

Same bug for me.  KB shortcuts all disabled as well as drop and drag.  Creating a fresh Workspace solves the issue temporarily but it will bug out again when alt tabing or a monitor goes to sleep. Makes using Bins on a second monitor useless if you can't move anything around or set in/out points.  THX adobe=)

Update fixed it so far.  Correct Answer above might need to be updated;)
