Expected Behavior
Right clicking a custom browser dock should always bring up the right click menu.
Current Behavior
After docking the dock into the main window, and until it is restarted, right clicking the dock doesn't cause anything to visibly happen.
Undocking doesn't restore the behaviour, only restarting obs.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a new custom browser dock
- Verify that right clicking it brings up the relevant menu
- Dock it in the main window
- Verify that right clicking it does nothing
...
Anything else we should know?
- alt-tabbing back and forth causes the same
- Right clicking through the remote debugging devtools does correctly spawn the menu

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in OBS Studio 31.0.0-beta3 on Ubuntu 24.04 using the listed steps, and review the provided OBS log. Compare right-click behavior before and after docking, after alt-tabbing, and through remote debugging devtools. Done means the context menu appears normally after docking and alt-tabbing without requiring an OBS restart.
