OpenMW and sdl2-compat

My sdl2 was replaced with sdl2-compat, sld2 is apparently used with OpenMW, the game works fine mostly however it seems to "freeze" in menus such as dialogue and the inventory. As in, normally hovering over an item will show stats, but that doesn't happen until I click. Small issue but incredibly frustrating. When running OpenMW through the terminal, it says

[17:15:41.543 I] Unhandled SDL event of type 0x202
[17:15:41.543 I] Unhandled SDL event of type 0x217

[17:15:41.544 I] Unhandled SDL event of type 0x215
[17:15:41.544 I] Unhandled SDL event of type 0x204

Any advice or anyone else experiencing this issue?

Re: OpenMW and sdl2-compat

@impulsive4 : check https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 8#p2224018 and the archlinux bugreport .

If the soon-to-enter- extra-repo sdl3 3.2.2 and sdl2-compat 2.30.52 don't solve the issue, please report it to archlinux or sdl devs.
