I'm having an issue that about every 30 to 90 minutes the app I'm using loses focus to another app that is in the left side of Stage manager. I'm not sure what app the focus is moving to, nor how to prevent the issue.

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Any suggestions on a fix?

Reboots didn't help.
 
I have the exact same issue.

Seems more frequent than every 30 to 90 minutes but I could be wrong.

I'm in the middle of typing a sentence and then it just stop registering on the app I was in and start making sounds at every keystrokes.

Thought I was losing my sanity but it seems I'm not alone :)
 
Has anyone found a fix to this yet by chance? I seem to be having this issue happening every 10-30 minutes. I've seen some suggestions note that it could be a bluetooth issue with bluetooth devices trying to connect but I've restarted all bluetooth devices I have in the area and it doesn't seem to do the trick.
 
I've been having the same issue since installing Ventura on my MBP M1 Pro. Every 30-60 seconds whatever window I am in loses focus for 1-2 seconds, then focus returns. If I am typing when the focus changes, I get the keyboard input warning sounds. It is driving me insane as I write in a variety of applications all day, every day. APPLE FIX THIS!

PS. I am not seeing this behavior on my other MBP M1 Pro running Ventura 13.1 beta (22C5033e). I also did not observe this bug with any of the Ventura beta candidates nor the release candidate.
 
Figured I'd update everyone here in case they're also running this program. Turns out CleanMyMac X's Menu was affecting the issue to persist. I also noticed it was updated today to be compatible with Ventura and will update this post if the update didn't help the focus issues the menu seemed to have brought.
