Description
I havent had this issue before, but as of the last few days I have experienced some major stuttering whenever I press a key on my mouse.
I am using a Roccat Nyth, and any of those extra (mapable) buttons cause the game to lag for up to .5s, but this happens on each keypress.
I am unsure on why this happens, or what causes it. Even on games with native Linux support, having proton active causes the same issue.

No source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the stutter with the Roccat Nyth's extra buttons under Proton and compare it with native Linux game behavior; done means keypresses no longer cause the reported lag.
