Bitwarden on macOS 15.3 occasionally doesn't realease Secure Keyboard Input, preventing global hotkeys from triggering for other apps.

[Sean1708]

Steps To Reproduce

I've not yet found a way to reliably force this bug to occur (i.e. without having to wait), but the following steps do eventually trigger the bug for me.

1. Set "Start to menu bar" and open Bitwarden without logging in (alternatively set "Close to menu bar" and close the window without logging in). This bug might also occur if you leave the window open without logging in, but I haven't seen that happen myself yet.
2. Wait for some amount of time (it's hard to say exactly how much time, but I think somewhere around about 30 minutes).
3. Try triggering a global hotkey associated with a different app (e.g. the hotkey window of iterm2).

Expected Result

The hotkey triggers successfully.

Actual Result

The hotkey does not trigger and a notification is displayed saying that another app has Secure Keyboard Input enabled. Quitting Bitwarden fixes the issue.

• I understand that work is tracked outside of GitHub. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.
