It stopped happening after several restarts, without any kind of upgrade/fix.

The same is happening to me. I am using M2 MacBook Air with 16 GB RAM. After restarting genshin for 7-8 times only once did the keyboard inputs work. the mouse activity is being registered without any issues. My OS is 13.1 and Playcover v2.0.2
