Description

Bug Description

Please describe.
If this affects the front-end, screenshots would be of great help.
I keep getting into a state where I open up the recordings tab inside a user. After I click on a recording/interact with that section, I can no longer click any other tabs to get more info about the person. Refreshing the page also does not fix it, however, opening a new posthog tab and re-opening the person works.
