[roblatham00]

Windows Version

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22635.3570]

WSL Version

WSL version: 2.2.4.0

Are you using WSL 1 or WSL 2?

• WSL 2
• WSL 1

Kernel Version

5.15.153.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2

Distro Version

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Other Software

A standard "ubuntu-desktop" collection of graphical applications including gnucash (personal finance), evolution (mail/calendar), evince (pdf reader), firefox (web browser)

Repro Steps

• start a graphical application under wsl2
• suspsend windows
• wake up windows
• applications will still be running, but will not respond to any mouse or keyboard input.

Expected Behavior

I would expect to continue to be able to interact with GUI after waking from suspend

Actual Behavior

• applications will still be running, but will not respond to any mouse or keyboard input.

Oddly, the very simple older X11 applications like xcalc continue to repsond to keyboard and mouse input.
