From what ive read, it has something to do with nvidias in game overlay. If you have shadowplay set to "on" it causes this issue but if it is set to "off" it does not.

Even if i alt tab to a steam message from friends, i can start typing in the window and a few seconds later, the window is no longer set as the "active" window and I can no longer type. I have to reclick inside the steam chat window to continue typing.
