Trying to play the Steam version and the keyboard doesn't work at all. The mouse works fine and the keyboard works fine in other games. Anyone have any ideas? Checked winehq and googled around with no luck so far. Thanks.

I was finally able to get it working by switching to windowed mode in game settings, then (with the game running) switching to the Steam interface and back to the game window. After changing focus like this the keyboard worked. Currently I have to keep the game in windowed mode and keep Steam running in the background so I can switch between the 2 windows apps with the mouse.
I have the wine video configurations set to not allow the window manager to decorate or control the windows. This usually works best but I am thinking of re-enabling them so I can try using alt-tab to switch focus and see if that fixes it. I'll try to post back here again if I make any more progress.
Meant to put the link where I found the tip.
Enabling the wine-config video option (paraphrased) "Allow window manager to control windows" fixed this issue for me.
