[BUG] TOTP window freezes sometimes when attempting to login and unable to click anything

[virtualizerforlife]

Hi,

I found possible bug that I would like to report here.

Summary:
When connecting to the local (hosted in the home network) instance of proxmox and entering login credentials everything is fine until this point.
But when the login window is asking for TOTP, it the page "freezes" and everything is unclickable.

This does not happen every time but it is happening quite often and when it does happen I have to try with another browser to get in

Environments / versions:
Browser: firefox 151.0 (64-bit)
Operation system: arch linux
proxmox-ve: 9.1.0 (running kernel: 7.0.2-6-pve)
pve-manager: 9.1.19

Hmm... it might just be that it loses focus. I've seen this happen when you have a password manager like Bitwarden or KeePassX installed in a Chrome-based browser. In that case, it helps not to click on the TOTP window, click somewhere else instead. That brings the focus back to it. Could this be something like that?

That is interesting because I had to change the browser to make it to work and this browser didn't have password manager installed like on the firefox. My totp is located in password manager that is in the system software so the password manager was never opened. I also tried to click somewhere else but it didn't work.


Thanks for the tip I need to test this without having the password manager installed and see if it does the trick and I will report back here my results once I do test it
