[Bug] Mutter 49.1.1-1 causes cursor drift in Emacs

Since I updated Mutter from 49.1-2 to 49.1.1-1, I’ve encountered an issue when switching workspaces using the keyboard (Ctrl+Alt+Arrow keys). When I move to a workspace where Emacs has focus, the cursor keeps moving in the same direction as the pressed arrow key until I press a regular key. With vanilla Emacs (`emacs -q`) and vertical workspaces, this results in repeatedly reaching the beginning or end of the buffer, accompanied by Emacs’ beep notification.

Downgrading Mutter to the previous version (49.1-2) resolves the problem.
