Tap-to-Click Stops Working After Awhile After Upgrade Today

After upgrading today, tap-to-click on my laptop touchpad stops working after awhile under both upgraded kernels. I'm assuming the issue has something to do with the kernels. Tap-to-click stops working much more quickly under the regular kernel than the LTS kernel.

I'm using synclient to manage the laptop touchpad and I'm using the Openbox window manager with the following settings for touchpad use in the ~/.config/openbox/autostart file:

### TOUCHPAD: comment out the next two entries if you don't have one

## Configure touchpad. See 'man synaptics' for more info.
## Now might be using libinput
synclient VertEdgeScroll=1 HorizEdgeScroll=1 TapButton1=1 TapButton2=3 &

## Disable touchpad while typing
syndaemon -i .5 -K -t -R -d &

### TOUCHPAD END
