keyboard disconnects only on steams games

Hey,

I have a very odd issue where my normal keyboard immediately disconnects whenever I open a steam game. I have tested this with 3 mechanical keyboards (Ducky tinker75, RK M75, and a cheaper alternative I got from amazon) and its the same for all of these. I have tried different ports/cables with them as well. General use and blizzard/riot games work just fine on my keyboards.

Then I tried my dads old apple magic keyboard and the issue doesnt occur when I'm using that. I figured maybe my drivers were an issue for my keyboards and made sure to redownload the firmware and test. but the issue still remains. I'm unsure what could be the issue here and would appreciate any suggestions. Here are some of the things I have already tried:

• disabling steam overlay
• disabling controllers in the steam settings
• new windows profile
• reinstalled windows
• uninstalling all usb devices in device manager and restarting
