Tab key gets processed by Code when I use Alt+Tab to switch windows

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Press Alt+Tab to switch to another window.
2. While still holding Alt, press Tab again to switch to the next window in the chain.
3. Switch back to VSCode
4. See that tabs were inserted in the editor whereever the cursor is.

If some code was highlighted, the lines get indented. If my cursor is in the terminal, the terminal gets Tabs inserted.

This happens somewhat reliably. If I press Alt+Tab four times (while holding the Alt the entire time), I usually (always?) see three Tabs inserted in my code.

I tried changing my "Window Switcher" hotkey to another combo, like Alt+P. I saw the same behavior. When I pressed Alt+P four times to switch to the 4th window in my stack, I later found that 3 p's were inserted into my editor.

This only started happening in the last week or two.
