How to fix rendering freezes when switching keyboards with Gnome in games

As I am using a MoveMaster with its extension to play games instead of using a keyboard, which are detected as two keyboards, I experience a render stalling when switching between those. For games or applications in fullscreen this can be fixed by altering the _NET_WM_BYPASS_COMPOSITOR value.

This is an issue affecting Ubuntu with Gnome.

Click the window first via: 'xprop' Find the window id: 'xdotool search --all --pid [pid] --name Chromium' Change property: 'xprop -id [windowid] -format _NET_WM_BYPASS_COMPOSITOR 32c -set _NET_WM_BYPASS_COMPOSITOR 1'
