[SOLVED] Xmonad suddenly stopped responding to Keyboard Input

Hi

My Xmonad was running fine till yesterday but since this morning it has stopped responding to keyboard inputs. I can move the mouse but no keyboard input has any effect whatsover.

Have tried recompiling xmonad and also rebooted my machine but nothing seems to work.

Also tried using minimal configuration but still same issue, cannot even open terminal with the default keybinding.

import XMonad

main = xmonad def
     { terminal = "urxvt"
     , modMask = mod4Mask
     , borderWidth = 3
     }

Also tried system upgrade but still same issue.

Linux harsh 5.6.12-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun, 10 May 2020 10:43:42 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series SoC Transaction Register (rev 21)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 21)

Have had to switch to openbox due to this.

What could be this issue?
