Based on the results of my earlier Google searches, I tried incognito
mode (no luck), disabling extensions (no luck), and unplugging/replugging
my USB keyboard (no luck).
I did not try a new profile, nor did I try resetting all settings, the
latter of which sounds horribly destructive.
Another post in this thread claimed that the bug may be related to using
"system title bars and borders", which I am doing. However, disabling
that and then restarting Chrome does not fix it. So there's some other
piece involved.
