**OS:** macOS Monterey version 12.5
**Yabai Version:** yabai-v4.0.1
**Some context**
Since a few keys of my mac dont work (mainly `w` and `2`), I use an accessibility keyboard. By default, it can be shown or hidden using hot corners. I noticed that when I switch the focus between windows using the `yabai -m window --focus` command, it activates the top left hot corner. For now, I disabled the top right hotcorner cause of this. This issue persists when I shift focus via `yabai -m config focus_follows_mouse autoraise`, but the hot corner is activated only for a moment since I am moving the mouse

Research direction
Reproduce the behavior on macOS Monterey 12.5 with yabai v4.0.1, first using `yabai -m window --focus` and then with `focus_follows_mouse autoraise`. Compare whether switching focus activates the top-left hot corner and whether moving the mouse clears it; done means focus changes no longer leave that hot corner active unexpectedly.
