Public bug reported:

I have a laptop with a touchpad and an external mouse. External mouse
motion is ignored whenever a keyboard button is held down. This makes
most computer games unplayable because you can't move and turn at the
same time.

The touchpad is not ignored and keeps working perfectly when a key is
held down.

Toggling "Disable touchpad while typing" in system settings does  not
have any effect.
