While browsing my library the backspace key ceases to function if I send the Playing Now screen to a second monitor. Alt-Left and the back toolbar button fail to work as well. As soon as I redirect the Playing Now back to the primary monitor all functionality is restored. I've been able to consistently produce the problem on two different computers. I'm currently running 11.1.194
I tried to search this one but the closest I could find was in a locked thread back in May.
I found no acknowledgement nor a solution.
Typically I use the second monitor (projector) when I have people over and I'm projecting the G-Force visualiser. This is also when I discovered the Backspace Bug as I was showing off how cool MC is to one of my guests. I was a bit embarrased and could not explain why navigating around the library was suddenly screwed up. Shutting off the second monitor would not be an option and navigating back via the top of the tree is too cumbersome
This is a bug, right? I can't imagine wanting this as a feature or am I just missing something... ? If it is a bug, could it please be addressed in a future build?
Thanks!

Oh and here's the thread and excerpt that points to what I believe is the same bug:

hello
starting with build .184 some shortcuts stopped working in theater mode... "back" using backspace key for example... is it a bug or a feature?

I noticed this too. Didn't make the connection to .184 until you just posted that.
