As the title says, deactivating a hotkey system on Linux (and possibly other platforms) does not stop it from eating key-presses.

As an example, if I have my split key bound to "e" and then deactivate the hotkey system, all of my "e" key presses just get consumed without being passed on to the program I'm typing in.

Even if this is intended behavior, its really annoying because I'll either have to close my timer or destroy the hotkey system entirely just to use said key normally.
